If I read your email right you have a 120 GB WD drive with Win XP on it 
and  a 30 GB Maxtor that is now just extra storage space.  I suggest 
that you copy anything that you want to keep on to the larger drive and 
then install Fedora on the Maxtor  ( which Linux will recognize as hdb) 
and let it reformat the whole drive. There is really no need to use 
Partition Magic -- Fedora will handle everything and its safe to let 
Grub be installed to the MBR ( this how its intalled on one of my systems).
