Why is this? Is it a bug? Or is floppy support in the 2.0 kernels
just broken for Amiga? Anyhow, I've noted it.

Here's what I put:
Pretty much all storage systems supported by the Linux kernel are
supported by the Debian installation system. Note that the current
Linux kernel does not support floppies on the Macintosh at all, and
the Debian installation system doesn't support floppies for Amigas.
Again, see the <url id="&url-m68k-faq;" name="Linux/m68k FAQ"> for
complete details on supported hardware.
