There should be details in journalctl and /var/log/dnf*.log.   Finding the
pertinent
entries can be a challenge.   When a system doesn't behave as expected, I
usually
start by checking that disks have adequate free space, are healthy
(according to
S.M.A.R.T tool), and can be mounted (e.g., using Gnome Disks in the Live USB
environment) -- viewing logs on a failed disk is often a futile exercise.
