When this kind of thing happens you just need to periodically make a bit of noise to make sure it doesn't get forgotten. In particular you should mention the problem to re@ so they can investigate and track it.

Do I need to bother re@ with non-working fdc(4) in 6.2-PRERELEASE? http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/103841

In short: dual boot computer, floppy drive works in Windows, does not work at all in 6.2-PRE.

Could you try booting a 6.1 or 6.0 CD and see if this is a regression from previous FreeBSD versions? Often, floppy disk problems are a symptom of an ACPI/BIOS problem, FYI, so you might want to check if there's a BIOS update from your system/motherboard vendor.
