You can probably test if I'm barking up the right tree or barking
mad by booting a 4.3 bsd.rd and see if you can fsck your root
partition. Since you appear to have a serial console, I'd try to
do this by booting single user, mount -f / (to skip the fsck), start
the rest of the system, and copy over a 4.3 bsd.rd, then reboot off
it. If the fsck works, reboot, and upgrade the machine, please.

Turned out to be bad RAM. Fortunately the system had 2 512MB sticks, so
we just pulled one and its running fine.
I'll be upgrading soon.
