As Rogerio says, mkdir /oldsuse

So, just possibly, you can use mac-fdisk to create hdb7 and hdb8
as normal linux partitions -- use e.g.
c 7p 7p suse1
So that you don't change the sizes at all. (Be sure you're editing hdb
of course). Write the map to disk, and see if the mount command works
after rebooting. The idea is that maybe the partition got deleted from
the partition map, but really still has the ext2 filesystem on it.
