Before you rebuilt the kernel, did you update /usr/src using csup or
cvsup? If so, then it sounds like there's a bug somewhere in the ata(4)
code which is causing this problem.
The code was recently modified (3 days ago), which sounds very
suspicious.

I've CC'd the responsible parties. They should be able to work with you
to find out what the problem is.

I can't explain this one.

There have been recent reports of the floppy disk driver in FreeBSD not
working.

This is a separate problem and is known. AFAIK there is no fix, other
than to try 8.0-CURRENT which contains a new USB stack.

Can you please provide exact FreeBSD versions and not just generic
strings? We need to know if you're talking about FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE,
6.2-STABLE, 7.0-RELEASE, 7.0-STABLE, 7.1-BETA, etc...
