First thing that comes to mind is that you may have a file system problem.
IIRC the 128's 400k disks were not just 800k disks with only one side
written onto (things I remember using with System 5 on my first SE), but
the older systems used MFS instead of System 5 and above's HFS. So you may
run into trouble using floppies formatted using System 6 for 800k or even
for 400k; I can't remember from the top of my head if the formatting dialog
offered a choice between 800k/400k(HFS)/400k(MFS)
I'm pretty sure that selecting 400Kb ensures MFS format. 800Kb can be either.
