This would seem to mean the NewWorld startup routines couldn't understand
the ROM image. Did you actually take the .bin file off a CD? You do know
what a .bin file is? It's MacBinary format. Assuming there's an actual ROM
in there, you need to un-bin the file. If your distribution has a
'macutils' package, install it, and there should be an 'unbin' utility
somewhere in it. Use that to extract the file from MacBinary format, and
then strip and move the extracted version to /usr/lib/mol/rom.
