As far as you know now, ;-) the additions to the Z5380 driver are ready.
Assuming you'll take care of the disklabel stuff, I'll continue with the
messdos driver. It would be easier though if there were a reload device.
Anyone come up with a good idea?

IMO it's not so bad that fd0c is not supported. It is however a disaster
that the floppy driver can crash the system completely (while using fd0b).
