You won't see the linux drive by default from windows, as it has trouble understanding anything other than it's own filesystem. Under SuSE, you will probably see your windows partition under My Computer as something like "Data1", though note that you probably won't have write access to it. In short: Windows will see itself and nothing else, Linux will see itself, and have a directory/mount point for your windows drive (and anything else it can understand, which is pretty much anything).

What happens when you click on it ? You may also want to have a read of the various USB tutorials here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...iewcat&catid=3.
