But you didn't update the device numbers accordingly. If you simply replaced
hdb with hdd, then you created a /dev/hdd which actually corresponded to a
(nonexistent) hdb device. Anyway, a much simpler (and more robust) fix would be
to add "ide-floppy" to /etc/modules. Now that I look again, the bug is likely
that the module isn't being loaded, and as such it's a duplicate of bug #8509.
