I installed SUSE9.3 in a separate slice of my drive, I now run 9.2 . When I finished the 9.3 installed and logged in, none of my existing "extra" partitions got mounted. these are FAT partitions to swap files between XP and SUSE..
Which partitions are we talking about, hdb5 and hdb8? 'cat /etc/mtab' to see what is actually mounted. If these two partitions are not being mounted, I cannot see why, as the "noauto" option is not specified in the fourth column.
We should still see what is being mounted at boot -- 'cat /etc/mtab' or 'mount -l'
Also, have you tried mounting a vfat partition manually? mount -a -t vfat
