I also tried to exclude the internal hard disk from the boot list, in
hope to be able to solve the issue.

However that didn't made any difference.

While installing Fedora an option is available to change the disk
order, is there something similar available in openSUSE 11 which I
might have missed?

I don't recall how it was in openSUSE 10.3, but just that fact that I
have it running proves that it was indeed possible.

Can anyone help in this regards please?

I had a major problem upgrading from 10.3 to 11.0 the reason being in 11.0 openSUSE recognizes hard drives
in an inconsistent manner! If you have a mix of ide/sata, SCSI, or usb drives you will most likely install to one drive/partition
but the system will boot looking for a *different* drive/partition.
