(looking at the modules list, i hope for future support of all kinds of things :) The grub install process doesn't check or ask for the grub-install --no-floppy option, because of this on my laptop (without floppydrive) the installer hangs on Running "grub-install (hd0)" (hangs == waiting for about 5/10 mins) A question about the use of --no-floppy would be really helpfull for laptop owners or people without a floppy drive.
