This does not make sense. EISA is downward-compatible with ISA, and every
EISA hard disk controller with a floppy disk interface should make it look
just like ISA. My guess: you may not have turned the floppy disk interface
on in the EISA configuration program, or you may not have turned off
another floppy interface elsewhere in the system, creating a conflict.
