/dev/fd0 + devfs = panic

    Try this:

    fetch http://apollo.backplane.com/DFlyMisc/fd01.patch

    It will be a little wonky but it should work.  /dev/fd0 and /dev/fd0a
    should show up permanently.  Other partitions/slices may show up
    if you fdisk/disklabel it, but only after you open() /dev/fd0 because
    the device driver does not detect floppy insertion and thus does not
    auto probe on floppy insertion.
