I just tried to mount a floppy for the first time since /dev/MAKEDEV
upgrade broke my box awhile back, and I get the message:

	mount: special device /dev/floppy0 does not exist

I've tried /dev/MAKEDEV generic and MAKEFLOPPIES, but /dev/floppy0 still
doesn't exist.

I'm continuing to read the man pages, but would appreciate some input.
