Yes, interface is missing for d-i's list-devices-hurd to be able know
what is a Cd and what is an HD.

Indeed, I have fixed that.  I have also made the fd entries use "auto"
instead of fat, now that that is supported.  I have however noticed that
it doesn't actually works for fat :) That's because blkid apparently
reports it as "vfat", not "fat".  Could you have a look at that?
