The download eventually finished for me. It was slow, but it did finish.
The install worked without a hitch, everything rebooted and now the system reports it is on Stream. All the VirtualBox guests came back up, too.
Thanks!

Ah, additional details. Thanks! The download is started. Running REALLY slow (like 24kb per second!) but it is running. I am not in a big hurry.
I'm also trying to upgrade my CentOS Stream 8 system, and am getting super slow download speeds when the initial metadata is being retrieved... approx. 30kB/s.
I know on older CentOS systems, you could Ctrl-C and yum would move onto a different (hopefully faster) mirror, but now Ctrl-C just stops dnf altogether, and if I reissue the "dnf upgrade" command, it again slows down to a crawl.
Is there some setting for a minimum bandwidth threshold or some other way to diagnose some really slow mirror?
thanks, Greg
