Antec: you really aren't adding anything to the bug, all you're doing is
annoying the users and developers who are subscribed to it.

We are aware that there appears to be a problem with floppy disk support
in the most recent version of Ubuntu.

However we have something of a difficulty obtaining machines *with*
floppy drives! No laptop or desktop currently on the market from a
major manufacturer appears to have one, and certainly our developer team
don't have access to any machine with one that's actually working.

Martin Pitt has asked (in comment #90) for SSH access to a user's
machine who can put a floppy disk into the drive. We really need that
to be able to debug this problem.
