You're right - the kernel on my RPi way behind Tumbleweed.

I'm using the same repositories.

Correct.

I tried to install kernel-default-4.1.6-3.1.armv6hl, and to make the same 
manual correction as above. That didn't boot at all, it didn't even get past 
the rainbow square.

My RPi has only two partitions. Probably because it was zypper dup'ed from 
13.1. I noticed that my RPi2 (also on Tumbleweed) has an extra partition for 
the low-level bootstrap stuff, then a /boot partition, and finally the root 
partition. I guess the kernel upgrade didn't work because the newer kernels 
expect this partition layout for the update to work properly.


I tried to upgrade to the new layout by installing a fresh 13.2 image:

<http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/ARM:/13.2:/Contrib:/RaspberryPi/images/openSUSE-13.2-ARM-JeOS-raspberrypi.armv6l-1.12.1-Build36.9.raw.xz>

Unfortunately, that image won't boot properly. It gets as far as the "Starting 
kernel ...", then it seems to hang.
