can you try the same with a matching -current? I heard that msdosfs is bombing there too. (just to confirm this.. if it works there but not with KSE then we have work to do :-) I build and run a kernel just before applying the patches, that was able to mount the partition and 'accepted'

I can not reproduce this with a memory disk image of an msdos floppy (I do not have a floppy on that machine) can you try accessing the floppy without mounting? e.g. can you try using it as a raw device with TAR or something? Maybe it's the floppy driver rather than tehe filesystem. If you can

Because we have not patched any non kernel items in the patch A make world in a source tee with the KSE changes in it's kernel directories will fail. You need to do build the kernel outside of the tree you will "make buildworld" in so that the build tree is untouched. Oherwise it will not
