Yet another plea for help...  (hope I'm not asking too stupid a question)

I installed system 7 on my mac IIsi (105M/5M) last night.  I pretty
much stripped all the inits out since its standalone with no printer.
Unfortunately, when I turned on the Virtual Memory (giving it the recommended
amount of space on the harddrive which had more than enough space) and
rebooted, I got the " 'System' Illegal Instruction - reboot with shift..."
message.  If I reboot with the extensions off, its okay.  I then turn off
the VM and it reboots just fine.

So, is the problem obvious, or can anyone tell me where to start looking?
Like I said, I don't have any INITs runnings (to my knowledge).

One other question.  Is there a way to turn the cache off?  ParcPlace Smalltalk
won't run with the cache turned on (gives a message to that effect), but
I'd bet it would work just fine if I could turn it off.

Thanks!

Ken
