It's often helpful to paste your dmesg into your question with problems 
of this sort. From my dmesg:

fdc0: <Enhanced floppy controller (i82077, NE72065 or clone)> port 
0x3f7,0x3f0-0
x3f5 irq 6 drq 2 on acpi0
fdc0: FIFO enabled, 8 bytes threshold

So I have a floppy controller. So far so good. But what about a floppy 
drive? That's in the line:

fd0: <1440-KB 3.5" drive> on fdc0 drive 0

Do you also have that?
