In this case, Fedora Server isn’t one of the choices available for
Compute, those are what are available:
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/images/os-details
Note: Fedora CoreOS is not like your desktop OS, it’s a minimal OS to
run containers (and kubernetes). If you are looking for something
that use fedora tools similar to the Desktop OS you’ve used (rpm, dnf,
etc), you’ll need to follow these instructions:
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/import/import-existing-image#console
And use the images available here:
https://fedoraproject.org/cloud/download/
I’ve never don’t this, I don’t have a GCP account, so perhaps there
are others on this list who can comment. You might get more mileage
out of using one of the supported OSs. I suggest CentOS Stream 9, it
will be quite similar to Fedora Server.

OK thanks I will look into that. That answers my questions I am sure.
