Steps to reproduce

Get the latest SLES15SP5 image. Try to install powershell using installpsh-suse.sh or install-powershell.sh script. It throws error saying OS is not supported.

Script supports SLES15 but there is bad code in there which prevents the execution. Below code for checking OS has been deprecated after SLES12 so it works for SLES12 but not for SLES15. We need to check for /etc/os-release to get the correct OS version.

elif [ -f /etc/SuSE-release ] ; then

Expected behavior

installpsh-suse.sh or install-powershell.sh should install powershell on sles15.

Actual behavior

installpsh-suse.sh or install-powershell.sh throws error on sles15 because of deprecated code being used.
