From my keyboard:
Dell Inspiron updated Debian Bullseye
Often get this message:
# ifup wlp2s0
wpa_supplicant: /sbin/wpa_supplicant daemon failed to start
run-parts: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wpasupplicant exited with return
code 1 ifup: failed to bring up wlp2s0
and,
i'm working on a thumb drive to use it as install media.
su -c 'parted --list /dev/sdb' (/dev/sdb is thumb drive}
lists partitions from /dev/sda 9system drive)
even when /dev/sdb doesn't exist!
fdisk -l /dev/sdb properly reports it as missing,
and gparted seems to be unconfused.
so far google ref
