Installing grub 0.94 from the FreeBSD ports collections, I can boot 
Windows, FreeBSD 4, and FreeBSD 5, but not SuSE Linux.

I used the following grub commands in menu.lst
   title SuSE Linux
       root (hd0,4)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5 vga=788
       initrd (hd0,4)/boot/initrd

These are the same commands use by SuSE enu.lst to boot itself.

    

Are you sure these are the exact commands?
It should be something like
title SuSE
	root (hd0,4)
	kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5 vga=788
	initrd (hd0,4)/boot/initrd

I tried your recommendation. It failed with the following messages:

root (hd0,4)

Error 22: No such partition

Press any key to continue...

How can I debug this?
