Fabrizio,

I think you are working a bit too hard. I had similar problems and
discovered that, for this sort of simple action with no jail involvement,
the format should be much simpler.

link cd0	cdrom
link cd0	dvd
link ttyd0	pilot
perm cd0	0666
perm acd0	0666
perm pass0	0666
perm ttyd0	0666

This will create symlinks from /dev/dvd and /dev/cdrom to /dev/cd0 (use
acd0 if you don't use atapicam) and a symlink for /dev/piolot to the
COM0 port.

It also changes the protections on the cd0, acd0, and pass0 devices to
global read/write.

I think you can see what you need for your floppy. Probably:
perm fd0    0666
perm apm    0666 (I'm not sure that you need this.)
