That's the "Apple set the MPW Shell partition size to 1024K when they really
should have set it to 1500K or 2048K" error message. It is most prevalent in
MPW 3.0. Things have been cleaned up a little in MPW 3.1 so that this should
happen less (not happen as often?). But it still occurs on large builds. Set
your MPW Shell partition size larger if it does. If all of this means nothing,
because you are not using MultiFinder, then error -108 is the "You should have
bought THINK Pascal, as there is not enough memory on this Macintosh" error.
You really should have at least 2 meg., pref 4 (that's what the APDAlog sez).
