Before eliminating fdc from the kernel I add another piece of info.
If immediatedly after booting I put a floppy into the drive, the booting
process goes on without problems.
Any other. softer solution to tis problem.

I updated my pentium 3 PC Compaq Desktop 450 from freebsd 5.3 (which
was working like a charme indeed!) to the new 6.2 installing from a CD.
It happens that the boot
1) runs smoothly as usual till after the
probing of the CDs,
2) then the boot hangs for about 3 minutes probing
the floppy (I see the floppy led turned on for the same time),
3)
eventually again smoothly till the end of the booting process.
I
noticed that the /dev/fd0 device is not found and there's no way to
mount it.
Build a kernel without "device fdc". Or maybe disable the floppy in the
bios.
