Public bug reported:

At least in Ubuntu 19.04, the arm64 kernel (linux-image-5.0.0) is not
building CONFIG_MVPP2 (depends on CONFIG_ARCH_MVEBU) -  a driver for
network controllers(s) in Marvell SOCs, particularly Armada 8040 -
neither as a model or a built-in:

$ uname -m
aarch64
$ grep MVPP2 /boot/config-5.0.0-20-generic 
$

It makes very hard (and impossible for non-advanced users) to install
and use Ubuntu on the Macchiatobin board (http://macchiatobin.net/) - a
reasonably priced and performant server/mini-desktop platform.

Could it be added, please, and the installer image re-generated.
