This is just a very wild guess but on current there is an issue with some Athlon motherboards w/via chipsets and the dmesg is something like

fdc0: <floppy drive controller> port 0x3f7,0x3f4-0x3f5,0x3f2-0x3f3 irq 6 drq 2 on acpi0
fdc0: I/O to control range incorrect
device_attach: fdc0 attach returned 6

I was told on the Current list that my acpi was on crack :) but Warner is preparing a patch.  It's been that was for a while.

Like I said, I doubt it is the same but just in case.  I assume you aren´t using Athlon with via chipset, if not I don't think that is the problem.
