   Checking the list of IIGS error codes on the WWW at
http://www.visi.com/~nathan/a2/faq/gserrors.html, 110A is a "bad
record" error while loading an application or other code file.
I'd suspect a poorly copied disk, corrupted files on the HD (tip:
I trust the HFS FST even less after reading the description of the
"binary tree on LSD" data structures that it uses), or something
trashing the file as it's being loaded.

   Try shiftbooting, and running it off a ProDOS filesystem disk
that's been checked for problems. If that doesn't work, then return
the disks to Procyon for a new copy.
