That file looks rather old and probably somehow didn't get cleaned up.
As Factory doesn't include the Raspberry Pi boot firmware, you can find
the latest -raspberrypi images here:

Careful, there's a difference between a JeOS-raspberrypi disk image and
a pure JeOS rootfs tarball.

You'll need to extract the tarball into a manually prepared partition.
You'll also need...
* the raspberrypi-firmware package extracted onto the FAT partition
* a Config.txt bootloader config file on the FAT partition
* if you want to use U-Boot, u-boot-rpib or whatever appropriate on the
FAT partition plus a boot.scr boot script on the rootfs partition
* your own kernel, with everything built-in as initial bootstrap step,
as you'll need an initrd to boot the modularized openSUSE kernel

It's going to be a whole lot easier if you can take a .raw.xz image as
template and only tweak it as needed. In particular, you can fork the
openSUSE:Factory:ARM JeOS image on OBS to create a JeOS-raspberrypi2
image, which I guess you are trying to accomplish here.

For using a rootfs as a chroot, cf. https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:Chroot
For using it with specific boards, someone would need to add
board-specific documentation to the HCL pages.

Andreas
