Assuming you have a working internet connection:
If you want to keep the current kernel as a just in case fallback:
option 1
smart update; smart install kernel
option 2
fetch the kernel you want via http/ftp/wget/etc
rpm -ivh kernel <kernelname>
To replace current kernel:
option 3
go into YaST, find kernel, and select update
option 4
smart update; smart upgrade kernel
option 5
fetch the kernel you want via http/ftp
rpm -Uvh kernel <kernelname>
There are others too.
