The hard drive light flashes on start up as normal,then goes solid when finished.The floppy is shone but not mounted or excessable.When you try to mount is the screen just disappears.Ibm laptop have a universal drive bay.It could be a dvd,floppy,superdrive or battery. Yes it tries to mount automatically,so i am guessing that is why the had drive is  running straight out...

That's fine, you can still continue. Being subscribed to the bug is
enough to be able to run apport-collect. But anyway, we already have the
information from igi. This shows that a floppy drive was detected
indeed.

Can someone please answer my original questions?

And when do you see the hard disk light? After startup, or after you do
what?
