I have been playing with an 2004 vintage P4 machine which
similarly hangs at probing floppy... but after a long time,
perhaps 30 secs it continues.
Have you tried waiting for this long?
Have you tried Erik's alternative distribution:
ftp://ftp.quanstro.net/other/plan9.iso.bz2
It has subtly different drivers and might suit your machine better.
