Not reproducible on comment 0 host gx760 running 42.3/4.4.92. Same messages appear in dmesg, but not on the ttys. /proc/partitions does have a line item for fd0 even though drive is empty. Same host gx760 booted to TW20171023/4.13.8 does almost same, but floppy error is 10 rather than -5. I do not hear a floppy access attempt running fdisk -l booted to either TW or 42.3, but fd0 error messages do then get logged.
