>Description:
Panic if you absentmindedly exclude the floppy disk controller
when tossing assorted Adaptec, Ultrastore, IDE and who knows
what devices. ;-)
>How-To-Repeat:
In the visual kernel configuration hit 'delete' on the
floppy disk controller.
>Fix:
Perhaps protect the floppy disk controller like the PCI stuff?
It doesn't make sense to exclude it when you have just booted
from it!
