There's no way you can boot that disk since it lacks the DOS system files (MSDOS.SYS, IO.SYS, COMMAND.COM) to start with. I think that the 5.5'' disk would most likely have the exact same content and was only for other computers that had that floppy drive instead of the 3.25'' one. I think that what I did and caused crashes was the right way to run it back in the day, but I'd bet this is a severe compatibility issue as you said.
