With your notes, and the opensuse ref manual section "Installing/Removing Multiple Kernel Versions with Zypper" I thought I had made progress, but reboot was still a problem.
I still find broken links in the directory /lib/modules/4.17.13-2.g9079348-default/weak-updates/updates/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtl8xxxu.
Could you detail those, please. "Broken'? Where would they point to that is missing? Earlier in this thread someone explained how to use 'rpm -qf' to find the package to which the file belongs. Would you please try accounting for the package for those links and what their destination would have been. I'm pretty shure this is a result of you manually deleting files rather than using zypper to delete the package. It may be that the RPM database thinks the files that make up a package it know about (aka was installed) are there but they are not because you manually deleted them. Cleaning that up and then rerunning MkInitrd/Dracut should elimiante some of your problems. At some point, however, it may be simpler to wipe it all and start from scratch. But I suspect you're jinxed. Some people are. Contrariwise some people never seem to have any of these problems and can can do elaborate multi-systems install that dazzle the rest of us. Then again, you see some amazing skateboarders and skiers, and skaters and then there are klutzes like me who does great damage to the front of my face whenever I try.
