The Gparted app is gone and it is simpler to use the version in the install
app
It is not "gone": it has never been installed. You can use the live system,
or you can install it: https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/add-and-remove-programs
(it is the third time I point you this manual).
When I run install again - will I have to deal with the boot problem too?
Yes, you will. The default kernel does not properly support your video card.
If so, is there a simpler way to avoid or remedy it rapidly?
I do not think so. Just follow

not forgetting any character in the commands.
I do not understand your network issues. Don't you access the Internet from
any of your system? Don't you have a router providing the Internet access to
all your computers? You only need to configure the router.
I doubt anybody reads 3-page-long threads but those who got involved in it.
You had better create a new thread per problem/question. Try to clearly
explain the problems you face. That usually mean briefly and with short
sentences.
The network should connect or "share" devices so the new Taurinus laptop is
an option to consider for /home , yes?
You mean the desktop system having its /home on another computer (shared with
that system)? Well, that other computer would then have to always be online.
Since we are talking about a laptop, you probably do not want that. And
accessing files over the network entails a performance penalty. And you have
very large disks in this computer! Do you really use all the data they
contain? Aren't there duplicated data?
What procedure(s) do you employ to search the internet securely?
I am not sure I understand what you mean. First of all, I rarely search the
Web: I use the history and bookmarks (URLs in the address bar are
auto-completed). I use https://duckduckgo.com/html/ as my default search
engine. But you can use StartPage if you prefer. Click on the magnifying
glass at the left of Abrowsers' search field and then on "Search settings" (I
translate from French: it may be slightly different) to set the default
search engine, the additional ones, search engines, etc.
I don't see any Abrowser options for deleting cookies
In the menu (the button with three stacked segments, like a burger), click on
"Preferences" and, in the "Privacy" tab, on the "Display the cookies..."
button. You will then be able to select cookies and delete them. There is a
button to delete them all too.
does that mean all cookies are auto deleted?
Click on
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/415846/addon-415846-latest.xpi
if you want "Self-Destructing Cookies".
Previously I had StartPage (IXQ) now I am attempting to get accustomed to
duckduckGo but when I click the links isn't the browser dumped to the website
without avoiding cookies and IP address?
"Dumping the browser to the website" does not mean anything. See
https://duckduckgo.com/privacy if you want to know DudckDuckGo's (good)
privacy policy.
