It's working great for me on a Beige with a processor upgrade to 350MHz. If you strip the OS 9 extensions down to an OS 9 Base set, you shouldn't have the problem you're having now. Note also that as documented on the XPost site, some G3 Cache Control apps cause serious trouble. You also absolutely have to have OSX within the first 8GB of the boot drive -- I partitioned to 7.98Gigs since when I partitioned to exactly 8G in Drive Setup it refused to work.
I put a Rev C ROM stick in my Beige (orig. Rev A), and I had, repeat HAD, to terminate the external SCSI jack on the rear panel in order to get anything to work right. I also completely removed the internal SCSI cable since I'm not using any SCSI devices inside.
All has been very stable and smooth. Getting to this point was harder than I expected, but not as hard as some have experienced. I'm convinced that SCSI problems lie behind most of the failures.
