You may have a different version. What's the error that DIC reports ? which track?

Just tested installer with SPS version 32 and it works fine

Hi. Good news! I tried installing the game again in order to get that information, and although it struggled a bit (around 108) it successfully made an image. The floppy disk was quite noisy, so I think its on the edge of of success/failure. I was expecting the image to be the normal size but it was a bit over 700k but I'm sure that is just Patcher magic. Very many thanks for your time and trouble - and for the install. :-)

yes, disk image is 705024 bytes size by design. Glad that you could install it. It was about time (but AGA version is better IMHO)
