Gee, that board can handle 8 SATA drives! Pretty cool.
Was one of the reasons I selected that board. :)
Anyhow I'm wondering if the onboard wifi has to be shut down in order for the Marvell ethernet to work?

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 interfacescan 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. :)
