It looks to me as if the 9fat partition is not being found by the
9load on your hard drive.  Is it identical to the 9load on the
floppy which boots successfully?  Can you build a 9load with
debugging output turned on (e.g. trace in part.c, parttrace
in devsd.c and chatty in dosboot.c), put that on 9fat and try
to boot with it?
