how did you create the redboot floppy? and what version
of tools and ecos are you using?
sounds like the classic "forgot to use the template" .
you'll find it discussed in the archives.
if that is the problem, here is the solution, in summary, assuming linux:
ecosconfig new pc redboot
ecosconfig import $ECOS_REPOSITORY/hal/i386/pc/current/misc/redboot_FLOPPY.ecm
ecosconfig tree
make
fdformat /dev/fd0
dd conv=sync if=/whatever/install/bin/redboot.bin of=/dev/fd0
