This might be an issue with the driver that Lido put on the HD.
Apple's HD SC Setup 7.3.5 would be safer bet.
It can be patched with
<http://hyperarchive.lcs.mit.edu/HyperArchive/Archive/disk/apple-hd-sc-setup-735
-patch.hqx>
so that it will recognize non-Apple HD.

Also be sure to add Desktop Mgr extension to Sys 6 older.
It mighr be better to put OS 7 on partition 1 and OS 6 on partition 2.
