I have the same issue. The mobo supports floppy but the drive is disconnected (not being used).
This fixed my problem: all_generic_ide floppy=off irqpoll As suggested by this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=767154 Background info: The box was running Gutsy and upgraded from the update-manager GUI to Hardy. The Hardy kernel didn't work so we had to use the old kernel. That booted the system and we started digging to see why this happend, until we stumbled upon that forum post and then this bug. -- Install CD dumps to busybox after toggling floppy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
