Well, similar results exists for me.  I'm running 6.0.4 on a mac Plus
with 4 megs of ram.  I just recently installed a fresh 6.0.4 on my system.
With no inits and nothing else running under multifinder (except the finder
itself), MacMINIX causes an Illegal Address error and drops into macsbug 
"almost".  The crash is swift and painless, and leaves no clues.  After it
drops into macsbug, macsbug does not respond either.  The only "key" that
works is the reset button...


  Any clues, Joe?  I seen many others with this problem.  

BTW, mine does work under unifinder  but the command "term" doesn't.  Has 
anyone else gotten it to work?  The progress of mine is limited to printing
out "Reader started" and then I get a hard crash similar to above.

Is there a fix to ps ?  Mine can't read the kernel namestable (??).

Just dropping some problems on you all,
