Yes, that is the error manifest. :)

*W means error 128+87=215 BAD PATHNAME

After Boot finishes and turns over the process to rb1773, the disks can't be 
read correctly because they were formatted as double-sided but the descriptors 
are for single-sided.
Unless you can boot from older OS-9 disks and can use dEd to edit the 
descriptors in the OS9Boot file, you won't make any further progress. That being 
the case, e-mail me directly asking for specific disk images and I'll send you 
good ones.
