I only get this if I enable floppy support in my bios. When I shut it off it doesn't appear. The floppy recognition comes from the bios, as a floppy drive is a dumb drive, generic in firmware, requiring nothing special. The only way to get this to not occur is to remove floppy support from your bio

Your kernel actually does think that there's a floppy drive, as far as I can tell; I bet you'll find a /sys/block/fd0 directory or similar, perhaps representing a floppy drive controller without an actual floppy drive attached. We don't just guess (nowadays). The real bug here seems to be that the
