Firefox has its own certificate store. It doesn't share '/etc/ssl/certs'.

If we had the bank URL, we would be able to better help you to resolve this issue.

Next time, start your own. Mailing list threads are cheap.

I see my bank has an invalid cert.  Likely I have an old cert chain.  I'm 
running Debian Linux and firefox.

Use anyone of the distribution provided package managers to download and
install the most recently released package of certificates.

Can anyone tell me where to install a valid root cert?  Like what directory?
I would think the bank should be able to provide the root of the chain.
I'll need to know SPECICALLY what to ask them for.

Asking the operator of the site you wish to authenticate for the certificate
is similar to asking the Fox to guard your Chicken House.

Get the root certificate from an "independent", trusted, source.
Using your distribution's package management will take care of that concern.

I've created my own certs of course but just not recently.
Also I never tried to install the CA cert for firefox.

Your distribution's package manager already has that handled.
All you have to do is use it.
