Try clearing parameter RAM. Boot from the floppy, then hold down 
Command-Option-Shift while opening the control panel. Hold down these 3
shift keys until a dialog box appears asking if you really want to clear
PRAM. Click yes.

That usually brings the hard disk back after you restart. Then backup
your files immediately. I've had a LOT of experience doing this for the
last two weeks on several machines, System 5 and 6. In my case, it was
a symptom of worse things to follow, so don't neglect that backup just
because everything seems to be back to normal.
