This reminds me of something. You can pretty stall your system by
writing/reading to/from a damaged resp. removed floppy. I wonder
whether this isn't actually a bug in the floppy driver. IIRC,
you *can* check whether the drive contains a floppy or not although
this flag is flipped on PS/2 systems. So this should at least stop
the kernel from trying to access a non-existing floppy.
