I think you nailed it.

After I got a hard drive setup I duplicated the crash and see that it happens after the intro text is displayed, which rules out it being related to the output of text characters. 

Then, I ran a version with the map issue fixed and the game now boots fine via PR#6 from a hard disk.

I'll post an updated disk image soon.

Thanks!
