When I installed SuSE 10.1 XEN it used from my 200 G hard disk:

/dev/sda1   3 G for swap (I changed that from 1 G to 3G)
/dev/sda5   21G for /
/dev/sda6  190G for /home


Since my system keeps on crashing with XEN I think about to change the partitioning to:

3 G for swap
1 G for Linux XEN
20 G for /
190 G for /home

Any comments on that?

2. Which distribution should I use?
Could I just use the demo CD?
How to install another Linux (other than SuSE, which seems not to work)
