Hi everyone, i'm sorry for the delay in getting back to you all. And thank you for the helpful feed back.
I've tried a new install as David suggested and tried to partition the disk myself, using the yast partitioner of course. It seems to have worked ok, this is the output from fdisk -l now:
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00080e48
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 262 2104483+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda2 * 263 2873 20972857+ 83 Linux /dev/sda3 2874 19457 133210980 83 Linux
In addition, when booting up, the grub screen does only show "opensuse 10.3 ..." and floppy, where as on the previous installtion it showed me a second opensuse 10.3 on sda2 (hope that makes sense).
However, when i look at KDiskfree again, it still shows --as before--
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD1600BEVT-_WD-WXE108H89310-part2 ext3 N/A / /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD1600BEVT-_WD-WXE108H89310-part3 ext3 N/A /home
/dev/fd0 auto N/A /media/floppy
and then it lists
/dev/sda2 /dev/sda3
...etc, which reflects the output from fdisk -l. It's clearly an error on my part, so will try it again if you guys think that's the best thing to do?
thanks again. Jamie

Does this look right?
Jamie, Looks great. Please post the output of 'cat /etc/fstab' so we can confirm. I don't know why kDiskFree shows the ? or N/A, but rest assured it shows the same on mine.
