It seems that my prior FSO wifi configuration no longer works with M5.

root at om-gta02:~# ifup eth0

I'm using WPA2 configured as follows:

# cat /etc/wpa_supplicant/cat wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
# WPA2:
network={
       ssid=<private>
       scan_ssid=1
       proto=RSN
       key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
       pairwise=CCMP TKIP
       group=TKIP CCMP
       psk=<private>
       priority=50
}

And I've added the line: "wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf"
beneith the line "iface eth0 inet dhcp" in /etc/network/interfaces.

This configuration has worked for all other distributions thus far.  Is
something different this time around?
