Great. Thanks for all your help everyone. This should make things easier
in the future whenever kernel panics occur.

As a summary:

I have not yet run memtest-86 on the machine, (I'm kind of afraid to
reboot the thing right now) but I am guessing there is a memory module
error causing the kernel panics.

The 'locate' errors I was getting somehow fixed themselves and are not
reoccurring. 

I have edited /etc/syslog.conf on linux1 to log all kernel messages
remotely to linux2 like so:
kern.*			@linux1

I have edited /etc/syslog.conf on linux2 to take all kernel messages
from linux1 and log them like so:
kern.*			/var/log/kernel.log
