You could try getting to single user mode, putting a 1 after the boot
line during boot by editing the menu entry before booting.  That should
put you into the root account, where you can run a dnf update.

Or, if you can boot a rescue image, you can then use chroot to do a dnf
update of F29, should be something like
chroot /mnt/Sysimage dnf update
where /mnt/Sysimage is the root directory of the F29 installation.

I've done this successfully in the past from an older version of Fedora
for rawhide update in a situation like you are experiencing, and it has
worked.  I always keep an older version of Fedora (the last one I used
before this one) around for just this purpose (disk is cheap).
