There is no installer for Gentoo. You boot from a LiveCD and type commands
into a shell. That's how Gentoo is installed - your way. I'd suggest to
read the installation docs first.

Whatever _you_ want to use.

If you already have Linux on the box, then you also have grub already
installed. So you can skip that part of the installation and just add an
entry for booting Gentoo (assuming you'll keep Windows and Fedora, you will
have a triple boot system, then).
