I just booted 2.4.14-pre6 and tried to mount a diskette with an ext2
filesystem on it. /var/log/messages reported loading the correct
version of the module (floppy.o) and then it froze hard. Left the disk
spinning.

kernel: FDC 0 is a post-1991 82077

Works fine under 2.4.12. There was no fs damage.
/proc/ioports in 2.4.12 says:

  000003f0-000003f5 : floppy
  000003f7-000003f7 : floppy DIR

/etc/fstab entry:
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy ext2 defaults,noauto,user 0 0

Alpha, gcc-3.0.1 compiled (so is 2.4.12).
