Are you talking about version 6.6.3?
It is for all Mac's including 68k, PPC, G3, and G4 Models. Do you Know
enough about native code to work the program? I mean that's not a put-down
but the program is for developers and using it requires extensive knowledge
of low-level system software and hardware details. Do you understand
programming, or the basics of programming? Example...."Pascal", anything?
All crashes make you enter the debugger. Instead of a graphical "bomb box"
or even a vanishing program with a cryptic "unexpectedly quit" message, you
get dropped right into the debugger at exactly the point where the system
realized something was wrong. You get a more complete explanation of the
problem, such as "Illegal instruction" at some address in some data space
with other details you don't care about. The lines at the bottom just above
the command line are the machine-level instructions right where the problem
was discovered; the one with a "*" by it is somewhere near the current
instruction (the one that couldn't complete), but emulation and bus timing
concerns sometimes make MacsBug unable to pinpoint the exact instruction
that triggered the problem.
Also look for CurApName to see which app. was loading! (At boot it could be
a start-up application)
Try to re-install the program. If you think it is not working correctly.
This link will help you when working with the program!

Subject: [Duo2400] MacsBug on 2300c?
I tried installing MacsBug 6.6 on my 2300c running 8.6. However, when I
reboot, I drop into the debugger very early in the boot process, and the
debugging info don't help me finding what's wrong.
Is this version compatible with 8.6? I couldn't see anything on Apple's
Developer website that would lead me to believe that it doesn't work, so I
assumed it would work, but it doesn't.
Any idea anyone?
Thanks!
-Laurent.
