YEs I think it is in the bios for to start the computer from a floppy.  
. It used to be that  floppy support was in Ubuntu 9.8 and earlier but 
is not in 10.04 so I need to find a tutorial on how to install support.
                                                                         
                                                                     
Thanks, Doug
