Comment 2 for bug 97496

Tested with:
Ubuntu Live Daily Build 03-Apr-2007 17:51

I get the same error. I have not tested what disabling floppy disk drive support does.

Specs:
-ASUS P5W-DH
-C2D E6600
-PATA DVD drive
-SATA HDD

Previously in other builds (6.06, 6.10, 7.04 beta + daily builds), my DVD drive was never detected. I believe this error is similar to the one the ASUS P5B series had, but the P5B supposedly has it fixed.

For a previous, recent daily build:
I tried installing the alternate CD off a separate HDD, before, and it stalled when trying to detect a floppy disk drive. I also tried installing off a 1GB+ USB drive and it got stuck at trying to detect my DVD drive, for some reason.
