Ahh, yes, I screwed up -- I certainly did imply that, but both the Jessie and
the Buster system are already installed and being used, I would not want to
reinstall the Jessie system, I might consider reinstalling the Buster system,
I might even replace it with testing as, for some purposes, I need a Firefox
more up-to-date than that in Buster.
(I tried to join a Zoom meeting and could not get sound, I got a message that
my Firefox was not new enough.)
At least for the Jessie system, I'd like to install some encrypted filesystems
without reinstalling (or replacing) Jessie.
