I had this problem on a desktop machine. It appeared to have a floppy drive, 
but it was not plugged in.
After checking the BIOS, I discovered it was set as having a floppy on channel 
A.

After setting the BIOS to "No Floppy", the problem went away and it is
now working just fine.

Linux thinks there’s a floppy drive when there’s not. Probing slows down bootup 
by almost a minute.
