You should be able to do that. It's really odd that Sun defined
schema is in 99user.ldif - that file is reserved solely for user
defined schema added via LDAP. You'll have to post the errors here
so we can address the issues.
I did one better: I simply copied the entire config/schema/ directory
from the Sun box to the Fedora box, and tried to restart Fedora DS. I
got some non-fatal errors:

That gave me some hope, so then I tried to import my database from an
LDAP. FWIW, this is how I generated the LDIF on the Sun box:
db2ldif 'o=Bowdoin College, c=US'
Then I just tried this in Fedora:
/usr/lib/dirsrv/slapd-hebron/ldif2db -s 'o=Bowdoin College, c=US' -i /
path/to/dumpfile.ldif
And I got the following errors:

To be honest, I am a little confused at the relationship between
instances and backends. From what I can see, Sun includes the
following instances: userRoot, internetdb, pab and netscapeRoot (and
possibly others?). But, I only have one suffix that I need, which is
o=Bowdoin College, c=US.

* if I can't import the Sun schema, is there an easy way of
stripping out the Sun attributes from a 10,000-user LDIF file?
If you are a Perl hacker, you could use Mozilla perldap (included
with the fedora ds software) or Net::LDAP (probably bundled with
your linux OS perl distribution). If you prefer python, python-ldap
also has an LDIF parser.
Thanks,
Chris
