I would also like to dual boot with win xp and opensuse. how would i go
about this. could some one put me in the right direction or would it be
easier for me to google for the answer.

If a laptop:
Download and burn an iso image of gparted. It is a bootable linux
distro that excels at repartitionining and resizing your hard drive if
you need to do so on say a laptop.

Desktop PC:
Most of us here (I suspect) recommend you dedicate a separate hard
drive (20gb or larger) to linux, keep your WinXP on its own drive.
During the linux install, the linux installer will set up a bootloader
like grub or lilo to let you dual boot whatever operating systems you
have on your computer, and you can then choose which to boot by
default.
