Rob,
Finally I have this 770Z working in dual boot with Window98 and linux Redhad
6.0
Everything began to work when I used partition magic to do the partitioning
thing.
My conclusion is NT4.0 tools for partitioning and disk management are a
piece of crap.
I did :
-Reinstall fresh Win98 with reformating the whole disk
-install partition magic
-delete the D: drive
-Install Redhat 6.0 Workstation. Apparently it created automatically a 22
meg partion for the boot,
a ~5 gig partition for root and a 66meg partition for swap space.
apparently it did it to complete a 8 gig space.
-i used partition magic to create an additional 5.3 GiG of Fat32 partition
to be accessible from win98 and linux
with no barriers
I used the SVGA_Server and the XF86Config of Bill Mair to have the video
working , despite the last version that I downloaded seemed to have a bug
here is a version that work for me.
I am wondering now about the sound ..
