The drivers floppies is a split tarball, which is sucked in and not
mountable. We believe you experienced some 'loop' filesystem bugs
which should be fixed in 2.2.5. And we cannot reproduce this, so we
can only assume it has been fixed.
Therefore I am closing the bug. Let us know if you still have the
problem, giving as much info as you can, and we will re-open the bug.
