I haven't looked at the script, but it sounds like it first does a 
search like this:
ldapsearch -s base -b "" objectclass=* namingContexts
to get a list of naming contexts on your server.  When you setup Fedora 
DS, it should have created a suffix like
dc=host,dc=domain,dc=tld
You should probably use this one for your e-mail suffix, or domain.tld 
for your e-mail domain.  NetscapeRoot is only used for internal 
operations (console, admin server) - it's not meant to be used by other 
applications.

You should not need to migrate standard schema files like 
inetorgperson.schema or core.schema - Fedora DS should already have 
those - unless you modified those schema files (but you wouldn't do 
that).  You should only have to migrate things like samba.schema (which 
is not yet included with Fedora DS) or custom schema.
