Thankfully I have another system old 32 bit but I can download and burn dvd from it.
Then download the rescue CD, and put it in an USB, not a CD. Then the rescue live can write files, even install things that you miss.

First get it working and backup
To get it working you need to run fsck from the rescue media on the link above.
It is a powerful rescue image, not install media.
Does it work on a 15.2 system?
Certainly. You are only doing an fsck. But if that worries you, you can use the 15.2 image instead: <http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.2/live/openSUSE-Leap-15.2-Rescue-CD-x86_64-Build31.632-Media.iso>
Are their instructions on the disk because the 15.2 rescue / installdisk had none?
Instructions? It is just a Linux live, complete, graphical mode, xfce. You are going to do "fsck /dev/sdXY" in a terminal. You have "man fsck". You have internet, mail, browser...
Funny thing the KNOPPIX 9.1 and 8,6,1 did not come up in graphical mode allowing me to mount. Not sure if they can handle NVIDIA on the Dell N5150?
That I do not know. Better chances with 15.5 than 15.2, I guess. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.4 x86_64 at Telcontar)
