I doubt it.  Read this from 15'dec'01:

http://groups.google.com/groups?q=2.88+floppy+group:*freebsd*&start=10&hl=en&selm=20011215204212.C48137_uriah.heep.sax.de%40ns.sol.net&rnum=19

You could try just addressing it as /dev/fd0.  (Or getting ideas from
/dev/MAKEDEV to make a /dev/fd0.2880.)  But don't bet on it working.

I notice that "fdformat" has hard-coded numbers with 1720
being the largest number.
