Re: missing fd0 in /dev after upgrading to FBSD-6.0-CURRENT

Hi All,
      Just a Me To. The controller is found but the device is not:

fdc0: <floppy drive controller (FDE)> port 0x3f7,0x3f2-0x3f5 irq 6 drq 2 
on acpi0

      fd4
    unknown pnpinfo _HID=none _UID=0 at handle=\_SB_.PCI0.ISAB.FDC0.AFDC

All patches, happily tested. (It's a Dell Inspiron 8000 Laptop)
Kernels from ~ 1 month ago work.

Cheers,
