Tom,
I had the exact same problem over 18 months ago. Wallstreet G3/266, OS 8.x - OK; OS 9 - blank box after 1 or 2 cdev's loaded.
Replaced the AC/Sound card and problems went away. Proudly running 9.2.2 and 10.2.8 with 512m RAM with no more problems!
Try it, it will probably solve your problem. Wallstreet NOT R.I.P.
Thanks to Daniel Cota @ powerbooktech.com

The wallstreet with 512 megs ram, Blue Chip G4, 500mhz has stopped booting. I cannot boot into OS9. I get error box with no info after the first Icon mounts the desktop. I get the same box with error message Bus Error or Illegal Instruction when booting from CD. Bing a wall street it cannot boot from OSX. I have removed the processor, put in 233 no cache original, all ram, replacing with 128meg chip. Still no boot. I can boot from OS8 disk and install OS8.1. Reformated and installed to second partion. Installed OS 9 and back to same no boot situation. Any IDeas? Me thinks may be bad MOBoard.
