It's not.  Those devices are not created if you install from 96tpi floppies,
which you did.  Login as root, and execute the following commands...

	/etc/mknod /dev/fd1135ds9 b 2 37
	/etc/mknod /dev/rfd1135ds9 c 2 37
	/etc/mknod /dev/fd1135ds18 b 2 61
	/etc/mknod /dev/rfd1135ds18 c 2 61

These will create all the necessary special files to allow you to access
your 3.5" second floppy.

Hope this helps!
