Dmitry, what exactly are you missing? Foreman is capable of booting BIOS or EFI SUSE systems. You will likely need to add Grub1/Grub2 PXE templates, you can do that by modifying the BIOS ones. Our SLES/SUSE templates are mostly done by the community.

Example for Red Hat systems:

The one for SUSE will be very similar. Here is PXELinux one you need to convert into Grub2 format (above):

And then test it.
