Huh, better not use the installation disk in rescue mode because it is

Better use the specific XFCE Rescue CD/USB stick, which is designed for the purpose and runs a full graphical desktop (without install option).
Thanx, Carlos--I made the usb-stick and booted on it. But I cannot seem
to mount any of the partitions using the definitions in GParted, whether /dev/sda6 or nvme0n1p6, and if I did, I don't see the second ssd in GParted--it doesn't seem to have the facility to change drives. Obviously doing something wrong, but I don't see what. Also cannot run fsck on the partitions--"Possibly non-existent device?" What have I missed this time?
You ares supposed to get the XFCE desktop. There will be icons for the disks, just double click on them. If there are no icons, the open the file manager (Thunar). Remember that by default you are not root. No permissions. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.2 x86_64 at Telcontar)
