Comments/Problems:
On the first attempt, the progress bar was at 95% with the message
"Skipping unavailable module 'ide-floppy' for 'Linux IDE floppy'" when the
system locked up. I then rebooted, entering linux noapic at the boot
prompt with the same results. I then booted with linux DEBCONF_DEBUG=5
and switched to the output on Alt-F4. The last two lines were:
user.debug frontend: --> SUBST hw-detect/load_progress_step MODULE
ide-probe-mod
user.debug frontend: Adding [MODULE] ->[ide-probe-mod]
The last line on the output on Alt-F3 was
insmod 3c59x
