[SLE] Messed up my 9.2

Hello SuSE people.
Welllll.....I went and did it - screwed up again. Trying to gain a
little disk space, I went in and deleted a partition that I wasn't using
very much. Of course that changed drive numbers (which I didn't realize until now), and moved /var up to the next drive number, and I failed to go in an edit fstab. Of course the next time I booted Suse failed because of the change.
Sooo... Then I booted the DVD and went into the "repair system" and it offered to change my configuration. I accepted that and it changed /var to whatever--- I don't know. Certainly didn't help and/or made it worse.
So since the "repair system" from the install directory didn't work, I
then tried "rescue" but couldn't figure out the commands after the
"rescue" prompt.. Even brought up "Vi", but couldn't access anything with it. I have all kinds of notes and procedures on how to do this kind of stuff in my e-mail archives but of course I cannont access it.
Running 9.2 with Amd 64. Really don't want to reinstall.
Somebody Please? help me get my system back?
Bob S.
