I visited guru and discovered that it's an Ultra 5 with 128MB of memory
and 1GB of swap, built in 1999 according to the serial number; it
appears to have run out of memory during the update.
Since it's not supported hardware anymore, I created the noupdate94-sun4
cluster and put guru in it, and we reinstalled the machine with 9.3.
We may want to scan for other machines this old and put them in the
noupdate94 cluster if they haven't attempted to update yet.
