Dear expert,
I installed Fedora 32 in VirtualBox (6.1.26) at Windows 7, and performed some step-by-step updates to Fedora 34:
sudo dnf --refresh upgrade
sudo dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade
sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=34
sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot
and then,
sudo dnf system-upgrade clean
sudo dnf clean packages
sudo systemctl restart systemd-resolved.service
[XXX@localhost ~]$ sudo dnf makecache --refresh -v

Before I changed to mirror.crucial.com.au I did try the default mirror, but dnf failed to install/update packages as well.
I did try direct Fedora 34 installation in VirtualBox, but after installation, the Fedora 34 system could not connect to internet, and further update/installation of packages is hindered. This was why I started from installing Fedora 32 which has no problem to connect to mirror sites.
I did try to ping google.com, and the system took about 2 minutes to get connected.
I noticed that someone had posted the issue for Fedora 31 at
and I referred to the suggested solution. However, those solutions are not applicable to me.
Your solutions/suggestions are very… very appreciated.
Thanks…
