How can I add ibm.800 support?

This is from diskdefs.cfg from Greaseweazle.

disk ibm.800 cyls = 80 heads = 2 tracks * ibm.mfm secs = 10 bps = 512 gap3 = 30 rate = 250 end end

That looks like it's the same as the atari 800kB format. See https://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/blob/master/src/formats/atarist.textpb#L179. What platform uses it?

It use by DOS. 5.25 DSDD Disk can format to 800K. It has 800.COM TSR utility that allow reading 800K disk

simply use: atarist --800 (it's the same thing)

It's probably worth copying all of these to the IBM profile.
