If you can boot into Fedora, then try this section instead of messing
with commandline grub. You will need to know what partition SUSE is on
and you may need to figure out what type of filesystem you are using on
it. Most likely it will mount without a type listed, but if it is
reiserfs, then you need to do the mount with '-t reiserfs' in it to tell
mount what the filesystem is.
