Something is wrong, just doing a df on my work machine,
my root partition is exactly 10 Gig, but I'm only using 7.
That's the default install, with extras but nowhere near all packages.
(Took about 3/4 of an hour from a reasonably fast DVD)

On the cluster nodes Suse9.3Pro let me install
(a slightly customised versuin) into 4 Gig.

Maybe poke around in the partitioning part of yast
and make sure you really have 10 Gig??
