Actually once you've launched Disksalv and select the drive to scan, it should automatically scan the filesystem type and adjust accordingly. Most likely you have the FFS as you have a 1200 and at least kickstart 2.x or higher.

Another tool to look at the HD with is the HD Toolbox, you don't actually have to use it to repartition but it too will check the existing filesystem type for you.

Then there is the old standby of using a floppy to boot with.
