Last compiled (successfully) with 2.4.3-20mdk
floppy_cs-201.tgz       22-Jan-2001 11:41    20k
and available on http://libxg.free.fr/
and http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/kernel/pcmcia/contrib/

Only change the Makefile portion of floppy24.fix by:

Let me know if it is still good for 2.4.5, before I release floppy_cs-202
