I'm looking at your dump now.
Somehow your init process died, which is why the zombies are not
being reaped. I couldn't find anything in the logs to suggest why
the process died, but it isn't there so it must have.
Could you investigate further? Is init or /etc/ttys set up to do
something or access something that might be causing it to die? It
sounds like whatever is causing it to blow up is occuring early on.
