Hi Phil,
I only had issues with occasional loss of Ethernet messaging which required 
restarting LinuxCNC and homing again with the Pi4 and Mesa 7i92H.  Upgrading 
the power supply to at least 3A made a difference.   I used the same display, 
keyboard and mouse I used with the PC.  

I'm back to the PC because so far I'm not changing away from my dual boot 
testing.  I have very randomly with no apparent reason also lost Ethernet with 
the Mesa on the PC.  But nothing that indicates why it might happen.  It's very 
rare and usually only when I've been mucking around with things.

John
