Huh? Then how the hell does the kernel manage to make the floppy light light up? I suspect that your hardware does support a floppy device to some extend and that that confuses the kernel, causing it to retry and thus the delay. Probably the laptop supports a floppy unit in the cdrom/2nd_battery bay? I'd say this is a kernel bug. Anyway, something we cannot solve in the installer so if you want to follow up on this, I suggest you do so separately (probably with upstream kernel people). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
