  Modified files:
    sys/i386/isa         fd.c 
  Log:
  Introduce a device flags value of 0x1 to always pretend a 1.44 MB
  floppy drive #0, regardless of what the CMOS says.  This is intended
  as a bandaid for those plagued with Compaq's idea to not announce the
  floppy drive on their `Aero' notebook.
  
  Using the device flags is not very nice (in particular since they
  aren't per-drive but per-controller), but still looks a lot better to
  me than the disgusting guesswork hack that was recently posted to
  -hackers.
  
  Doc update will follow shortly.
