is it possible to use xfs system on SuSE? How could I do this?

as root (assume the partition is hda3), type 3 command at command prompt
#mkdir /xfsdata
#mkfs.xfs /dev/hda3
#mount /dev/hda3 /xfsdata

add in 1 line at /etc/fstab
/dev/hda3 /xfsdata xfs defaults 0 1

done

Sorry, I made a wrong question. The aim is to use XFS filesystem on the / SuSE directory. The system shall use XFS System.

During the instalation, is it just to choose on the partitioning section?

depends, if you use Suse10.1, then yes. If you use ubuntu, then no.
