  Two possibilities:

  1) You're missing some hardware feature. For example, I know that 2BSD
     insists on having a floating point unit. The FPP is a M7093 in slot
     3.

  2) You've got some broken hardware. Try running the diagnostics for the
     11/44 (if you have a diagnostic tape/disk). The 44-specific diags are
     named K-something. So, try KKAA, KKAB, KKAC, KFPA, KFPB and also ZMSP
     to test memory.
