At the point that looks something like:

you need to click on "Change" and the "Partitions".

Then you can define the partitions like you want them.

All the screenshots (or the video) of the Suse 10.1 install can be 
accessed from http://linuxtips.waidele.info/swf/Suse10.1.html
The 10.0 installation is not so different.

Let us know if you need to know more,
