There was MFS, a 'flat' system without folders used only on 400 and 800 K disks 
in the early Macs.

1.44M floppies are always HFS.

Looks like your Classic's drive needs cleaned or possibly may be misaligned. Do 
other disks read in the Classic? Format a blank disk in the G3 and one in the 
Classic, then see if they'll read each other's disks.

If you have a misaligned drive, you'll want to make disk images from every disk 
you've formatted and written to in it, then reformat the disks and write the 
images back to them in a good drive.
