modprobe: error inserting floppy


Whenever I try to boot up fedora now, it gives me "modprobe FATAL: error inserting floppy (device does not exist in /blah blah blah) - I can't remember the exact location but it ends with floppy.ko

It refuses to boot past this point and I dont understand why...I can't change files in linux from windows so I can't edit modprobe.conf to add the "install floppy /bin/true" line.

What do I do? It booted fine yesterday...Then today all this bullcrap!!

I don't have a floppy drive...
