The problem is that the mount table returns these automatic /cygdrive mounts. If there's a drive a available, a /cygdrive/a mount is returned. df checks all drives with statfs (or whatever), which results in accessing all drives mentioned in the moun table. Accessing a floppy drive always results in the "is a floppy in the drive" check in Windows.
