Good suggestion. So once again I made an entry in Grub's menu.lst,  
carefully copying the disk/by-id-field from the SUSE-entry that boots  
allright from the usb-disk (and checked it with the udevinfo information),  
trying the partition-numbers 7,8 and 9, but to no avail. The  
kernel-suggestions for valid partition device nodes includes the  
partitions of the usb-disk, including number 8, which, I think, is the  
right number.

The menu.lst entry is:
root (hd0,7)
kernel /boot/lfskernel-2.6.27.4  
root=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-SAMSUNG_HM160HI_160000113662-0:0-part8 rootdelay=9

Thanks for your idea.


Hans.
