I hate to ask, but did you try it? The fd0...fdn devices are supposed to auto-detect the actual capacity and density of the disk in the drive.
If that doesn't work, I think you'll have to configure the appropriate floppy devices for hal to create them.
Wow, I guess floppies are dead. I've been running FC5 for months and just now noticed that it never set up floppy access at all.
