Add an option, even if 'officially nsupported' to allow using an imaging environment that is based on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for the current/latest kernel. The main reason we can't manually compile and use a newer kernel in the imaging environment is the lack of the Tuxera module for other kernels. Using the legacy mode is too slow to consider in production.
I'm not sure how the Tuxera NTFS driver/source is distributed but even if we had to compile it ourselves against a kernel (if it is a binary blob for instance) that would be an acceptable workaround.
We've struggled to keep ZENworks clients happy who are looking at alternative solutions due to lagging support for the latest devices they purchase and expect to work immediately.

Sounds like you are using Windows devices. Did you consider WinPE imaging instead?
