I have just installed CentOS 4.4 and can't get the ethernet to work Ethernet is built into the motherboard: Marrvell Technology Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controler (reported by Network Configuration) It shows the device is active. using static address /etc/resolv.conf is setup correctly
The problem is that I can not talk to anything outside the system. This has worked with Mandriva, Fedora, SuSe and gentoo.

Have you tried the CentOS Plus kernel?
Unless it's on the install DVD, I have no access to it, remember the network is not working. :-)

You could download it on another machine and transfer via USB drive, or you could boot the machine from Knoppix (or similar) and store it on the local drive.

I downloaded and installed the kernel plus and it had no effect. The machine is pretty useless without a network connection. Guess I will just go back to using SuSe, unless someone has a solution. I am also not able to get it to use my Nvidia 6200 LE, I tried to use the 6200 but it did not work. I do not want to use Generic VESA.

i don't have any idea if this relates... as i haven't used the MB you're talking about... but that being said: i had some very similar issues to what you are describing with the NIC... and they were solved quite easily by simply loading the SMP kernel (instead of the uni-processor one)... and the SMP kernel is on the install CDs/DVD...
my experience was that the SMP kernel was pre-compiled with better APIC support that the uniprocessor one... and the interrupt handling of the NIC involved wouldn't work right off the bat without it...
just a thought...

Tried the smp kernel and it did not help. I finally installed an old 3com 10/100 card and it works using the 3com.

The nv driver does not support the 6200 chipset. Use the nvidia driver from www.nvidia.com. I am writing this on a dual monitor setup on a 6200 chipset, using the nvidia driver.
The Marvel Technology 88E8053 on my MB "configured itself".

Have you tried stopping the firewall if that won't leave you too exposed?
# service iptables stop
Could you provide the pertinent details from...
# lsmod # ifconfig -a # netstat -rn

Could you please post an output of *ifconfig* and *ip route*? I have the same network adapter on an CentOS and is working fine.

================================================= For the next hour, WE will control all that you see and hear.
I would try disabling PnP OS in the systems BIOS. I have had similar problems in the past and this was what fixed the issue.
