Don,
You can't expect to get useful answers if you don't tell us what is going wrong. 
Merely saying the Glenside IDE does not work for me tells us next to nothing.

When you try your boot disk, is it a floppy or a Basic disk on the hard drive? 
Whichever, what do you see on the screen after entering DOS? Does the boot 
process go at all but look for files on the wrong drive? Are there any error 
messages or does the whole system just lock up? How did you create the boot disk 
and what is the content of the OS9Boot file supposed to be? Is the Boot module 
one for a floppy or one for the IDE unit? What do the /H0 and /DD descriptors 
point to? What does Init point to?
