Hi,
on a Debian bug report [0] someone complained that the --no-floppy
option should be better documented in the man page, because it only
works if device.map doestn't exist or --recheck is given and he was
confused of this.
But it's generated from the --help output and I'm not that sure to make
it longer.
Or would something like this be okay?
