Can you check if reverting of MFC of the following helps (it's a
part of that big ACPI MFC)?

lines Remove _FDE quirk handling as these quirks are

Thank you for your quick reply to my message.

Reverting this change (src/sys/dev/fdc/fdc_acpi.c from 1.13.2.2 to
1.13.2.1) appears to have fixed the issue.  The floppy drive is now
detected and it is functional.  There do not appear to be any side
effects.

Please try the attached patch.  Sorry, it was stupid. :-(

Applying the patch to r200554 of fdc_acpi.c (1.13.2.2) appears to fix the issue. Once again, the floppy drive is detected and it is functional. There do not appear to be any side effects.

Thank you,

Scott
