Somone here had this problem just yesterday.  Tossing out "Responder"
(an INIT that registers the user's chooser name on the network) fixed
the problem.  Very weird.

The symptom here was that as soon as you inserted a floppy, it would
ask for the hard disk as though it had been ejected!  It is getting
near Haloween I suppose.
