Interesting...  Are you sure you had to put that in?  Normally kudzu
will find hardware, and write the line in (the whole thing), itself.
It's the converse of what you did.

Putting in kudzu doesn't make kudzu discover the floppy, but the kudzu
option marks that fstab line as something being managed by kudzu, and
may be removed by kudzu automatically.

I had to take out kudzu lines for my CD-ROM and burner, as they were
being mounted as cdrom and cdrom1, which gave me no clue as to which was
which, and it wasn't always the same drive for cdrom1, each time,
either.
