That is what the noauto in the option field of the floppy line in the
/etc/fstab does. However, you can't just insert that option in the
file since the floppy is managed by fstab-sync. Look at the fstab-sync
documentation and see where to put i in the fstab-sync configuration
files. You might use as a model the noauto option you should have on
the cdrom line in the fstab file.
