This is good, as you get the kernel loaded and started a bit at least.
From what medium are you loading the kernel, and could you try custom kernels?

0x1c32c is in zstty_softint1 (../../../../dev/ic/z8530tty.c:1638).
1633				if (ISSET(zst->zst_rx_flags, RX_IBUF_BLOCKED)) {
1634					CLR(zst->zst_rx_flags, RX_IBUF_BLOCKED);
1635					zs_hwiflow(zst);
1636				}
1637			}
1638			mutex_spin_exit(&cs->cs_lock);
1639		}
1640	
1641	#if 0
1642		printf("%xS%04d\n", zst->zst_rx_flags, zst->zst_rbavail);


Does it always show exactly this location?
