Was one of the reasons I selected that board.  :)

Best I can tell the onboard wifi is not operational at this point. 
lspci seems to indicate another network device but it is listed as
unknown.   Eventually I want to get the wireless interface working as
well.  But for now just want to get the wired network connection going
so I can update the system, sort out the other sata controller (have two
more drives to bring on line), then get mythtv loaded and running.

>From the documentation it appears that the wired and wireless interfaces
can work at the same time.  They show the board being used in an access
point configuration with connection over the wired interface to the
Internet.  

I was discouraged not to find marvell chip set mentined in the network
gui tool as hardware that could be added to the system.

I did search on the web prior to purchasing the board and it appeared
that there was a driver for that network chip set already built into
Fedora.  

So what else should I try?  One option I have is to pull a NIC from
another system and use that at first.  However I would like to get the
built in interfaces working.  :)

If a 6600 used paper tape instead of core memory, it would use up tape
at about 30 miles/second.
