I think you should boot into SuSE which appears to be the system that
installed Grub. Mount the Debian /boot and copy the kernel and System.map
to SuSE /boot. Give them the same extension on the end and rename the
kernel if it has the same version number as the one for SuSE.
umount Debian's /boot. Edit SuSE /boot/grub/menu.lst to include a stanza for Debian.
Then try to boot. You do not need to reinstall Grub. If that doesn't work,
then I think we will need you to boot into SuSE and give us /etc/fstab and
/boot/grub/menu.lst. I think the output of 'ls /boot > boot-contents' would
be good too; so we can see the names of the kernels. Be sure you do not
alter the stanza for SuSE so you don't lose the ability to boot into it.
