Hello list users:

How can I have suse recognize the new partiton so that I could 
format it and use it without rebooting?


from root, try running

/sbin/MAKEDEV

I don't think so.

It depends on the partitioner and what the system is doing at the moment. 
Ie, in runlevel 1 chances are you don't need to reboot.

Thanks Mike.

Next time I will try it.

Interestingly the last time when I made new partitition with 
cfdisk (this was after my post) the system recognized it after 
writing out the new partition table.
Is it possible that IDE and SATA disks behave different in this 
regard?

Cheers,

Once you've created the new partition, you can run "partprobe" and
then apply your filesystem of choice.

Hope this helps!
