Final update on this. I was able to pull another disk image that is
working fine. The main difference was that I used 512k bs for the dd as

throw that out in case anyone else ever runs into something like this.
Thanks again,

My suggestion:
dd if=/dev/fd0 bs=512 of=win95.img
when fd0 contains a Win95 boot floppy with some diagnostics. Then
qemu -boot a -fda win95.img -hda win95 &
and run the diagnostics.
That should tell you if there's an error in the image itself, perhaps in the
