I am using the kernel that came with the distro. I have not recompiled it so by default it should include the floppy, shouldn't it?
This is the reference in the udev rules:
KERNEL="fd[0-9]*", SYMLINK="floppy%e"
KERNEL="nst[0-9]*", SYMLINK="tape%e"
KERNEL="hd[a-z]", PROGRAM="/bin/cat /proc/ide/%k/media", RESULT="cdrom", SYMLINK="cdrom%e"
KERNEL="hd[a-z]", PROGRAM="/bin/cat /proc/ide/%k/media", RESULT="floppy", SYMLINK="floppy%e
dmesg has these references to floppy:
ide-floppy driver 0.99.newide
floppy0: no floppy controllers found.
Does this mean that the kernel does not include floppy drive support?
