Hi Paul,
The filesystem on the HD is International(FFS), at least according to the partitioning tool.
Your question raises so many others in me though. For example: Why should it matter what FS the hard drive has if it is supposed to be booting from floppy? Or is the mismatched FS a symptom of a bad floppy drive or something?

There's your problem then. International FFS is a no go for KS1.3. The file system is loaded into the Amiga's memory from the RDB every time you power on your Amiga. In your case the file system on your RDB is trying to access a library that it needs that isn't part of KS1.3, or more likely is not a high enough version number... Of course though, throw it a 2.x or above KS and it will work. You need to revert back to original FFS or use PFS for KS1.3 or above (all in one PFS - for all Amiga's/CPU's/Kickstarts):

What that is under 1.3 I'm not sure. So I'd be choosing PFS...
