I used to have a problem where neither my Linux nor Windows partitions would boot consistently, i.e. it would boot successfully sometimes and not so on other occasions. This was traced to a memory problem - my RAM chips had gone bad apparently. While Suse seems to working for you, you might nonetheless want to run a memory check. Installing FC8 should not solve the problem, in my opinion. And I would be surprised if Suse has something to do with this.
