SubjectProblems autoloading floppy module (2.1.96)
I had the following strange problem this morning:

When I first typed 'mdir', I got something like

/dev/fd0: no such device

The second time it worked normally.

The floppy driver is a module, so what probably happened, is the open
syscall to /dev/fd0 returned before the module was autoloaded. (there
was a lot of other hard disk activity (a 'find' process) during this
time)

My kernel is a clean 2.1.96 with a lot of things as modules.
