Thanks everyone. I tried the alias off method and now I don't receive the error anymore. Of course now it just sits there doing nothing after initializing the swap space. Instead it says something about Yenta and an IRQ and then a socket and then it does nothing. I'm not really sure what this is all about.
I think I'm going to try a different distro on this laptop. Knoppix live-cd seems to work, so maybe Debian is the way to go.

I'm trying to find out where I can prevent a module from loading. I'm very new to Linux. Specifically, I want to prevent the floppy.o module
from loading at boot time.
Add the line
alias floppy off
to the /etc/modules.conf file.
