Same thing on Precise with Grub2 1.99-21ubuntu3.4. This appears to be due to Grub2 searching an lvm partition for unicode.pf2. Here's a workaround for those using a separate, non-lvm /boot partition. Note: I am not sure if this will work with other distributions or Grub2 versions. 1) sudo cp

Have the same issue here. In my case though, it's not a floppy drive, it's my USB multi-card reader, which doesn't have any cards in it actually. I guess my BIOS is emulating those card slots as floppy drives, yet I don't see a way to disable it. I would really like to force GRUB or LVM to ignore
