For some reason unknown to myself I decided to wipe my SD card and start a fresh.
Since I had most of my configuration files backed up this would not normally have been a problem. I was sooo wrong.
Nothing worked. After 2 hours of checking the files again i noticed that the /etc/network/interfaces file had a entry in it what was ‘wlano’ instead of wlan0. oh how i swore.
Anyway I have a new clean install now that is connected to my home network as we speak.
Once I get my pi up and running how i like it. The next item on the agenda will be to try and take and image of the updated / built Pi.
