The problem turned out to be a bad IDE controller on the mother board.

I'm AMAZED that NetBSD kept this system working as well as it did for 
as long as it did.  Another OS would have just failed, probably taking 
my data with it to the bit-bucket.  With NetBSD, I was able to recover 
ALL of my data and move it to another system.

NetBSD ROCKS!
