Re: Fedora installation on Dell Laptop
i don't know. you could search google for that sort of stuff. my only advice is, don't mess with the recovery partition. don't delete it, resize it, nothing.

What i actually need to do is to install on D not on C but not sure about device drivers and the resposne precisely.
I want to do it for experiment sake and check the flavor of fedora-6 but not actually clear will it be worth ?

Re: Fedora installation on Dell Laptop
you have to stop thinking in terms of drive letters. there is no drive c. there is no drive d. they are a fiction. under xp, you can go to control panel -> admin tools -> computer management -> drive management and rename "d" to "z" or anything else.
instead, try to think in terms of partitions. you have a windows partition with windows installed. you have an additional partition (called "d" from inside windows). you have a recovery partition.
what you need to do is delete the second windows partition, and create two partitions in its place -- one for linux, and one for the swap.
if you are unsure whether you want to use fedora -- if you're just experimenting, use a fedora 6 live cd.

Just Reinstall the operating system which you want to install
#fdisk /mbr will remove your mbr of grub if you will remove linux, and that has alot of thing requires for that, so simple solution is that to reinstall your new O/S
