I did load udev earlier, but I never used it (did not have time to

removed it again.

Thanks for your reply. After rebooting (a failed effort to get grub
to work on this setup) I could see the /dev/fd0 created by MAKEDEV. I
am not sure why I could not find it. Maybe it was related to a
"floppy" module not loaded.
