I booted up Lubuntu 19.04 (alpha x86) oon hp dx6120mt (pentium 4 dual-
core, 3gb, nvidia 7600gt clone)
and by default it's selected storage device is "Unknown /dev/fd0"
Booted without the floppy in the drive it's default is "/dev/sda", it
only offers the /dev/fd0 when floppy is inserted on machine boot (just
like d755-5 in original post)
It's the same floppy used to test on d755-5, but on this box (and this
older `calamares`) it's not detecting partitions totalling ~1920GB on
the 1.44mb floppy
