Maybe install Bugtrap, activate it, reboot and report what it says here? At the very least it will tell you what package=
 is causing the error.

http://newyork.unna.org/unna/development/tools/Bugtrap/

Often such errors on startup happen because package A references package B
in its InstallScript, but B loads after A either because B is on a card and A is on internal, or B comes alphabetically a=
fter A.

Or it could be a poorly-written program trying to access some preferences on startup, and failing badly when they're not =
there.

Subject: [NTLK] -48204

   After installing Newt's Cape and the Image Viewers etc. to see JPEGs in NetHopper and SimpleMail I have started gettin=
g a -48204 error when I reboot the Newt.
   I tried rebooting with all packages disabled and then starting them from Extras in an effort to track down the problem=
 (that took a while), but the error doesn't happen when I do it this way.
   I also tried restarting with the newly-added packages frozen. I get the error.
   The little bit I have been able to find out about this error leads me to believe it is mostly benign, but I really don=
't like having an error floating around.
   Should I ignore the error andf hope it isn't a problem, or brainwipe and start rebuilding?
