Oberon boots fine from disk -- usually you'll wait longer for the BIOS
than for Oberon to boot -- but to me it sounded like you had hit some
roadblocks with partitioning and configuring the bootloader.

If you have a Windows or Linux box, you could experiment with QEMU and
work through the installation process before touching real hardware. 
Knowing that you're working with a single, empty disk I'd be happy to
write up a step-by-step that takes some of the guesswork out of the
normal installation document.
