fd0hxxx missing, (vmware fault?)

[Alfredo Valles <alfredo@bioinfo.cu>]

Hi debianeers.

I installed vmware4.0 play with it and then decided to go back to my old 
vmware 3.2.
Then I discovered that my floppy drive isn't reading my floppies anymore, even 
if the led indicates that the drive is working. (This is of course with the 
vmware not running, besides I always disable floppy access from the virtual 
machine).
Then I saw that all my devices files for high density floppies were gone, I 
mean no  /dev/fd0h1440 or any other  /dev/fd0hxxx.

But /dev/fd0 exist and it's not a link to any other dev. 
(Shouldn't  /dev/fd0 be a link to /dev/fd0h1440?)

Now how do I get back these devices files? 

My understanding of devices under linux is so poor that I don't have a clue 
about this.

Please, any help?
