Is the boot disk actually booting the computer? Make sure you copy the boot
image with a command like:

dd if=<image> of=/dev/fd0 bs=8192

If this isn't done right your computer won't recagnize the disk as a boot
disk and it may stay blank or give the message, Non System Disk, blah, blah.
Good luck.
