So having disabled ACPI, I've suddenly discovered that there is no floppy device. I'm attempting to upgrade the BIOS on my Promise Ultra133 to see if I can stop the corruption. A quick google finds this bug.
The workaround?
Add:
name="fdc" parent="isa"
dma-channels=2
interrupts=6
reg=1,0x3f0,6,1,0x3f7,1;
(you need that semicolon)
To:
/platform/i86pc/kernel/drv/fdc.conf
*sigh*
