13.1 - 'Hanging at Search For Linux Partitions'

There is a bug in the kernel on 13.1 install BIOS must have no floppy checked. Even if the BIOS does not SEE the floppy there is a box saying that floppy is there If the box indicates a floppy and no floppy is present the kernel will take next to forever to look for that missing floppy.

Well, that doesn’t apply to every BIOS out there, just some.

I haven’t seen this on any of my machines, but I can reproduce it in VMware (not in VirtualBox though).
