I tried using this on my system without the floppy and when I tried
grub-install --no-floppy /dev/sda1 I still got floppy errors. It wasn't
until I removed the fd0 entry from device.map that they went away. Now
I'm wondering if perhaps the use of --no-floppy is intended to tell grub
not to add it to the device.map rather than not to look at it during
other operations. If so, then the more appropriate place to but it in
systemconfigurator would be in Grub.pm where it calls grub-install with
--recheck and maybe other places that I'll have to leave it to the grub
experts to figure out.
btw - also from the grub-install help text:
" --recheck probe a device map even if it already exists
This flag is unreliable and its use is
strongly discouraged"
