What bothers me about your description, Carl, is that the kernel update,
if it came from one of the suse repositories and was downloaded with
yast/zypper is that it should have automatically triggered the
'grub2-mkconfig' and not required you to do that manually.

The 'only one entry' .... Well see the settings in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf.

You might check the responses earlier in this thread for some ideas
about how to (or not) retain more than one kernel during updates.
