Answer 1

for your nic card, I think the driver is available in their website. check it out http://www.marvell.com/drivers/search.do ... good luck :)

Answer 2

I think LINUX is not as any other OS ,there went something wrong while installation( at the end of the installation i.e., during the installation) linux checks it drivers to be well connected to the NIC and at that time it pops continuously (downloading from mirrors) which means it is ensures repeatedly it is well connected enough to the internet or broadband or router to complete the clean installation

Answer 3

you have that all @$$ about ... your Linux is not recognising your NIC
