I don't like to "me too" but in this case "me too" ;)

I added a floppy to my - CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2200+
(1799.70-MHz 686-class CPU) last week and am seeing something
similar but with a "range incorrect" error from dmesg.

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

Don't know if it is the same, but it looks very similar.

Thanks,

ed
