My suggestion would be:
- re-do the checksum verification against the download to make sure it
hasn't gotten damaged in the meantime.
- dd the iso to the SD card
- do the checksum verification against the SD card.  If this passes
the copy on the card should be good.  If you want to be doubly sure do
the "cmp" or "diff" with the downloaded iso and the SD card - there is
no reason to make a third copy of the iso.

I'm not even sure if F42 requires UEFI - I've been using UEFI for a
while now so I haven't had to worry about it.  I think I have a laptop
that runs F40 in "legacy" mode, but it would have been an upgrade from
an earlier Fedora version, F36 or even earlier.
