Try actually reading that manual on fdc as well. It says:
The standard names of a floppy drive will take the form
/dev/fd{0,1,2,3}{,B,C,D,E,F,G,H}[a-p].

You probably want to access a floppy drive, which are called fd*, not

Just a thought. For packages with sensitive system configs wouldn't it
be useful if the install automatically patched /etc/changelist. Also it
