Hello Monti.I'm no guru, but based on my experience you want the actual install partition to be roughly 18 Gb and then use up what ever is left as your home partition for files and such. If your on a laptop. then you may want ot make a swap partition with about 5 Gb. Again, I am by no means a linux guru, but this has been the advice given to me and has worked beautifully for me personally. Good luck with SuSE, and hope this helped.
