You should probably only have one of these.

I would normally not use a BIOS harddisk emulation, just due to 
nuisance value.  Instead, try:

boot a:
assign a: /u/doscmd/bootimage
assign c: /

Put the 'instbsdi.com' file on your boot floppy, add it to the
autoexec.bat script, and then dd the floppy image off to the bootimage
file.  This will give you drive c: rooted at the top of your filesystem.
