I suggest that you load the FDC driver at the same time as the kernel (in the bootloader/GRUB), as the kernel could have a hard time loading your FDC driver without a FDC driver..

In case you're using GRUB as a bootloader, check out the module loader support: GRUB can load multiple binary modules in addition to your kernel image, and pass the kernel the addresses of those modules in the Multiboot data structure.
