    I updated from kernel-2.4.20-20 to kernel-2.4.22-1.2088.nptl
    The older kernel always has

      Oct 24 14:49:22 localhost kernel: Floppy drive(s): fd0 is 1.44M

    in the system log. This doesn't appear when booting into the
    new kernel.

    The new kernel deleted the line

    /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy from /etc/fstab

    and throws the line into /etc/fstab.REVOKE

    I then tried to edit fstab by adding:

    /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0

    leaving out kudzu from the line above. I can't mount the floppy.
    I'm probably missing a step.
