From the GENERIC kernel config file:
# ATAPI devices
options ATAPI #Enable ATAPI support for IDE bus
options ATAPI_STATIC #Don't do it as an LKM
device acd0 #IDE CD-ROM
device wfd0 #IDE Floppy (e.g. LS-120)
^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is in 3.4-STABLE, I don't know exactly when support was added,
but I suspect it's in all 3.x versions.
BTW, if you are wanting to boot from it you will need BIOS support.
