I am attempting to upgrade Fedora 30 to within the next two versions to 32. Initial installation stages completed successfully but the fourth command drew an error.
sudo dnf clean all
sudo dnf update –refresh
sudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade
sudo dnf system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=32

I then attempted a previously posted solution: errors-during-downloading-metadata-for-reposito5275.
After inserting in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf either “fastestmirror=false” or “zchunk = False” or both, I issued:
sudo dnf clean all
sudo dnf makecache --refresh -v

Can someone help, please? Thank you.
