I can't think of a better place that this should be. We are almost there with the floppies it seems.

The only flaw: I have a Creative CR-563 (old type 2x drive attached to a SoundBlaster card). The module installed perfectly but the postinst creates a link - that seemingly failed with an obscure error message about back tick quoting. When I attempted to access the CD-ROM, the link under /dev from cdrom -> sbpcd0 existed but none of the sbpcd* devices existed. Fixed with "mknod b 25 0 sbpcd0" in /dev Other than that, no showstoppers and worked first time. There are a lot more devices now: many of these (paride under the disks menu, iso-8059-* under the fs menu) have no explanation beside them. I don't know where this is configured, but it would be a nice finishing touch to fill in a couple more before release if this is easy.
