Yep, it looks as though the only USB hardware that my bios understands during

sleazy easy solution, get a USB floppy drive, then the media will appear
as /dev/sdX. That's what I did for those rare occasions when I have to
retrieve a file off of old media. I still have a digital camera that
uses floppy media too.

There are several other places in the Fedora-13 documentation

(And several Linux programs spend time looking for /dev/fd0 .)
