Error Installing Fedora Core 4

Hello,

I am about to install Fedora on a partition on my hard drive. I got the CD from a magazine and it isnt a LiveCD so the magazine says "fedora core installer isn't a LiveCD, so it will merrily destroy your primary partition when you install on your machine", now I'm guessing the primary partition is my windows XP partition.

So my question is will the Fedora installer delete windows OS and create just one big hard drive (like no partitions) or will I get the choice were Fedora installs? Without affecting Windows?

I'm really new to this so gimme a break Smilie

Thank you

P.S

Sorry I forgot to mention I have already tried Knoppix, so I know that I want Fedora Smilie
