I had the same problem, and found that changing the floppy (disk) solved 
the problem.  I re-wrote the image to other floppies.

I have noted that the OS is more sensitive to "marginal" floppies than 
might be expected.  I now format all the disks before writing the image to 
them, and if there's the slightest problem with the format, trash the 
floppy.  They're just not worth the fuss to "save" a floppy and lose the 
data or OS.  I've noticed a failure rate of about 80% on some cheap no-name 
floppies I bought 10 years ago.  On the other hand, the name-brand floppies 
bought at the same time are working nicely.  And, on the gripping hand, 
I'll eventually move the project to a CD.

With no modifications, this fails with ;

Loading initrd.lrp...
Boot Failed: please change disks...

Just a dud floppy ?

TIA,
