it's about floppy actually: ghost floppies is a common problem. Second suggestion was implemented in 1.98. The first one won't be implemented because if heuristics fail in the other way it may cause greater problems (some BIOSes expose USB sticks as floppies). If you know a good way to handle floppies feel free to tell.

Hi,

my grub installations say "Error: no such disk" after saying "Welcome to grub" and before proceeding to the menu.

It would be nice if
  (a) the error wouldn't be displayed since there is obviously no error or
  (b) the error would at least say which disk it was looking for and why.

Greetings
Marc
