It gets stranger. I tried etcmerge, it could not do any useful work [ no conflicts found iirc ] I tried etcupdate, it could neither [ no /usr/src on the .img file filesytem iirc ] I found a wpa_supplicant line that creates wlan0 but run0 never gets beyond 'no carrier' ..................................... then I started Xorg and it worked... so maybe I just forgot to copy the new kernel over, but then why would the newer binaries and .ko files be working? .................................... Also, when trying the install of the dec 10 .img again, it failed in a second or so ..................................... When copying several files I missed in /etc over, I accidently converted the system to a 'live cd'... in other words, the system boots normally [ except the run0 not starting and other error messages ] but after login I am presented with the install menu even thought the thumbdrive is not present. And get a real boot completed by choosing 'live CD ' .... which is also off topic though... ................................... So I got further along, [ fixed Xorg ... ] but it maybe shouldn't be. ................................... Thanks for the suggestions. I don't wish anyone to spend any more time on this, eventually I may revert to a wired interface [ if only I was certain how to connect [ type of ethernet cable, ifconfig, route add paramaters... ] to the wifi modem ethernet router ports] ... I have more research to do. ...........................Received on Fri Dec 11 2020 - 20:07:28 UTC
