Thanks. About the starting: not much about it.
My System comes with a few predefined
Birth-Fields. In this case, I've used a torus.
In order to get an even spreading of the
particles across some of those birthfields
(its not possible on all of em), the torus one
creates a disc-position and rotates that
around the y-Axis to achieve a torus. Using
that as order for particles to start is implemented
in the system (why not make use of the features
it inherently has?).

Regards,
Tim
