Oops: mounting floppy disk on PPC64 (power3)

[Markus Rothe <markus@unixforces.net>]

Hi,

this is kernel 2.6.16.1 compiled with gcc 4.1.0 (gentoo patches). I never 
tried to mount a floppy on this system before, so I don't know if it Oops'ed 
in previous kernel versions, too.

power3 ~ # uname -a
Linux power3 2.6.16.1 #1 Fri Mar 31 21:08:43 UTC 2006 ppc64 POWER3 (630+) CHRP

Am I doing something wrong?
