as: Fedora Core 1 won't boot

Regarding floppy drive (USB) in Fedora 1.

I get a similar problem with booting Fedora with the USB floppy attached. 
The startup generates a host of error messages (dmesg truncates due to 
volume). I have Fedora installed on a Toshiba Satellite 5105-S607 with a P4M 
(1700 Mhz) and no legacy support.

Somehow the module for the USB floppy does not get installed into the 
kernel.

No similar problem with Red Hat 9.

insmod - failed for ... floppy.o

There are then 130+ error messages following.

Anyone figure out how to stop this problem with a USB floppy?
