You may have some bad ram, how many SIMMs are installed in the machine?
The BeBox manual in case you need it:

This sounds about right.

When you turn it on it should check all the RAM by raising the left then right blinking lights. It does this in turn for each stick of RAM. if you see that happen, you could probably work out which one is bad.

I never had a Bebox, but I remember reading at the old site bebox.nu that were some tricks dealing with memory modules.

You can look at bebox.nu at the Wayback Machine:
