That is (somewhat) correct; the scripts which create the initrd image will normally (in the default install) put all framebuffer, acpi, filesystem, and hard disk drivers into the image. Have a look in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf to get some idea what goes on.
I did, but the only way I found to control modules included in the initrd is the MODULES option in initramfs.conf (presently set to MODULES=most). I can't see any way to exclude "floppy" (I could specify a list, of course, but how do I know what modules are included by "most"?).
I wonder what you get in initramfs.conf if you do not select to load "floppy" when installing. Does it get loaded anyway?
