1-there was no /home partition created
That's fine. SuSE defaults to creating only 2 partitions - root and swap. The root partition contains all the data (including apps etc.) and the swap partition is the memory swap area. You can fiddle to create separate partitions, but it's probably not worth it for most people.
2-under /mnt there is no windows partition listed. Is it somewhere else?
Again, SuSE defaults to mounting the windows partition under /windows. You *should* find that it's automatically mounted and visible on your desktop under KDE and Gnome (IIRC). If not, simply use Konqueror/Nautilus/whatever to open /windows and voila! Also, SuSE doesn't use the /mnt directory anyway! It defaults to mounting CDs, floppies etc. under /media. You might also find symlinks to the mount points in the root directory as /cdrom, /floppy etc. (ISTR that SuSE 7.3 did this, but my copy of SuSE 8.1 didn't).
