I was assuming you'd just write GRUB onto the primary disk and set Hannah Montana Linux (lol, excellent choice of distro!) as the only boot option (because who needs os-prober and a selection timeout when you've got the best of distros on disk, amirite?).
I suppose the most problematic part is the partitioning you handwaved as "ok". Afair, Windows does not allow for live-resizing of the system partition (as it should). But I suppose there are ways around that, particularly if you've got another drive or spare partition of adequate size. (OEM recovery partitions come to mind; as much as 10 GB can be enough for a viable Linux system partition.)
