You are in standalone mode  not overlay mode in the past you must have ran a  destructive dnf command  because it has been confirmed  on staging certain dnf command messed up  some folks  overlay. I reinstall is the ONLY way we have found to fix this once the system is stuck

Thanks very much for your help. I will reinstall RakuOs, because I really like using it.
