Fixed that.

MacOS was there. Now deleted. Reinstalled..
Still, all I get is "can't OPEN". No progress ;)

Well.. I hope to be able to reinstall macos9 soon. If I can cleanly install
that I'll go that way.
One other thing: I can't find where to give command line options to the
bootfloppy. If that would work I could at least boot the rescue floppy and
get that to load the OS right.
(The documentation just assumes everyone knows where to enter this command
line... then when the rescue flop says "Try passing init= option to the
kernel" I say "WHERE?")
And: the woody install disk never did an nvsetenv boot-file.
