We currently don't have support for ISA DMA, which the legacy floppy

We can access floppy drives using PIO, and I modified floppy.h in asm-xen to do this some time ago. So I'm not sure why the OP's controller isn't detected --- adding tracing to drivers/block/floppy.c may help narrow down the problem.

This is now fixed in 2.0-testing and unstable. Thanks for the tracing you sent me, John. It turns out that when I fixed floppy.h for Xen, I mis-transcribed port 0x3f0 as 0x340 so we were trying to talk to the primary controller at the wrong I/O address and got no response.
