This looks like a lot of work, and again would require some systemd stuff 
to be installed. But we're back to square one in that without a working 
gateway, I cannot access the net to download and install the stuff.

I finally got the eth0 address changed but had to reboot:

eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.71.11  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 
192.168.71.255
        ether 3e:1b:98:17:e3:8c  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 758  bytes 102329 (99.9 KiB)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 1031  bytes 82076 (80.1 KiB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0
        device interrupt 40

 but that did not get me a gateway in the route -n report
this is the current /e/n/interfaces file

doing this:
root@rock64: route add gw 192.168.71.1 eth0
gw: No address associated with name

And I have a login shell I cannot copy to paste from. ikill it, open a 
new tab on konsole and it works again.

Is there anything wrong with the route statement I used?
