Where can I download a partition creator that creates Linux Ext2, Ext3 and Swap partitions. It also needs to be FREE. It is for SuSE Linux 9.1

I don't know if SuSe already has it, but cfdisk is a great little utility to create partitions. It has a VERY LARGE range of partition types.

If you don't have it (try running "cfdisk" in console) you can download it at http://freshmeat.net/projects/util-linux/

SuSE will do it during the install. Just create some free space (do not put a filesystem on it), then during the install you will e asked to partition the space.
