>From the huge pile of module aliases that Scott added to Jaunty recently,
the one for the floppy block device would close a regresion-release for
Intrepid.  This patch simply adds a module alias for the drive allowing
udev to automatically load that device driver when a floppy is detected.

Testing has been positive by those with these devices.  Proposing
for SRU to Intrepid.
