[5.0] CD sysinstall can't access floppy

[Jacques Beigbeder]

On a Dell computer, 5.0 says:
  kernel: fdc0: <Enhanced floppy controller (i82077, NE72065 or clone)>...
  kernel: fdc0: FIFO enabled, 8 bytes threshold
  kernel: fd0: <1440-KB 3.5" drive> on fdc0 drive 0

On a similar computer, I boot the 5.0 CD to install.
Messages like above display, so the kernel recognizes the floppy.
But when I try to access floppy (for 'Load config'), I get:
	No floppy devices found!  Please check that your system's configuration

What can I do?
