John,
I agree that 2nd and 3rd crash is "parity error" related.
But the first one (Bus error) can be also caused by accessing
memory which hasn't been allocated. For instance by using
pointer which is not pointing anywhere.
And about parity: Why faulty memory was not caught at bootstrap
on Power On Self Test by BIOS? I had a faulty memory once
(nasty, because it was only faulty when router was physically warm)
and it was always causing an error on POST when I was rebooting warm
router.

Subject: RE:
Ken,
My first instinct tells me that it could be bad memory because of the
parity errors. But do a show flash and make sure the IOS does not says
"invalid chechsum". Then try to download a newer IOS, it shows here that
you are running a 11.2 version, try a 12.x version.
