This is pretty confusing; can you post the results of
mac-fdisk -l
and
mount /dev/hdb8 /oldsuse
?
sure... (sorry for the confusion)
debian2:~# mount /dev/hdb8 /oldsuse

How can I get the debian system to recognize an SuSE ppc ext2 partition?

with it.
Since the complete SuSE is still installed on hdb, I'm g

The supplied 2.14 kernel boots okay, but includes some modules for devices
