The latest version of the PnP BIOS driver, available at: http://panopticon.csustan.edu/thood/pnpbios.html refrains from reserving ioports 0x3f0 and 0x3f1. This is a temporary fix for the floppy problem. I hope someone will fix the floppy driver soon so that this change can be reverted.
Note that at earlier version of the driver was included in 2.4.18-pre7-ac2 and an even earlier version was included in 2.5.3. If you are using either of these kernels and you don't want to update the pnpbios driver then boot with "pnpbios=no-res".
