5 No. As long as SUSE supports the file system on /home you're using in
6 Gentoo it will work fine, and that's very likely. When you're booted
7 into SUSE, run cat /proc/filesystems to see what it supports. If your
8 Gentoo /home file system is not there, you may need to load the
9 module, eg. on this system;
10 # grep ext /proc/filesystems
11 ext2
12 ext4
13 # modprobe ext3
14 # grep ext /proc/filesystems
15 ext2
16 ext4
17 ext3
