No fighting with GRUB or Windows configuration.

I have motherboards with wonky ethernet, too: If the cable is unplugged, or an ethernet switch gets de-powered, the network must be stopped, then restarted, manually (I use the network icon in the MATE taskbar to disconnect, wait a moment, then reconnect to a network). It just repeatedly hiccups if you don't do that. On one PC the network interface is manually preconfigured with a static IP, on the other it uses DHCP. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.42.2.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Sep 7 14:49:57 UTC 2021 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
