The discussion so far has caused me to wonder if I have been conflating
symptoms. I think I've an idea of how to test for that -- more later.
Preliminary tests indicate that is likely.
I will have to get some new flash drives to track my tests.
Linux intrinsically assumes one machine has multiple users.
In *MY* case, one user has multiple machines.
I also have multiple instances of Debian installed on a physical
machine. I routinely want something from another partition - Debian
requires root access for that. I'm wondering if some of my
chaos/confusion stems from copying data from that partition to a flash
drive.
