      BookWORM screwed it all up - and not JUST the   
      networking stuff.   
      
      Some months ago I posted some templates for the new,   
      pointless, annoying, networking defs.   
      
      I think Deb is now employing Canonical REJECTS who   
      have totally screwed up the distro to ZERO advantage.   
      
      On other units I've switched to Manjaro - but, to   
      date, there's no Manjaro for the P5. Depending on   
      what options you need, I'd suggest BeeLink and BMax   
      mini-boxes instead of PIs.   
      
      The trashing of Debian is BAD ... as it's used as   
      the foundation for SO many other (formerly) useful   
      distros.   
      
      If you have a P4 or below you can still get older   
      versions of Deb/PiOS ... but the P5 won't work   
      with those.
