Now the kernel boots (even with bootsplash!) but it cannot mount the
root file system /dev/sda2. Normally usb-mass-storage is initialissed
very late in the boot process. It comes after mount -a. I also don't
know if the necessary drivers are compiled into the SuSE kernel or if
they are later loaded as modules. Would it be possible to boot the SuSE
kernel with the Gentoo-partition as root file system and then,
immidiatly after mounting /dev/sda2 chroot there? I only want to run the
SuSE kernel with SuSE X and all other SuSE programs. What is actually
booted is not very important.

OK well put your kernel and initrd somewhere on hd0, the initrd will
need to set up the usb hard drive before trying to mount root.
