You can use parted, or the graphical QTparted (should be included
with SuSE) to shrink an existing partition and then create a new
FAT32 partition in the empty space.  I don't know if parted can
handle resizing NTFS partitions, but it works beautifully with
ext2/ext3/etc. Linux partitions.

Make sure you back up first!  :)
