It's a bit difficult basing an answer on so little information but I'll give it
a go.

Working from the basic assumption of sensibleness (i.e. you've RTFMs in the Doc
directory and have set up your molrc and roms correctly):

Edit molrc so that you're not including anything fancy (like networking, scsi,
real harddisks, etc.)

make sure your only block dev is

blkdev: /dev/cdrom -ro

Put your install cd in the drive and then startmol

This should at least boot, so you can gradually add other things one by one.

This is the way I first booted Mol, but YMMV
