this list was supremely helpful in extremely short order--kudos and many
thanks to all!

thanks to many replies from many folks; i've included the replies that
answered questions i should have been so smart as to have asked, as well as
a condensation of all replies i received to the question i did ask into
one fairly canonical list.

for the curious, a recompiled kernel solved the video-not-initializing
problem.

 The list of files that you want is on your /usr partition in :
/usr/.smdb./*.inv

[...]

If it will run, you may try using /usr/lbin/fverify to check which subsets
(the *.inv files mentioned above) are missing files from the system.

Compaq Services also has a tool called allverify.tcl that runs fverify
quickly on all *.inv files and takes into account any dupatch kits installed
on the system.

#!/bin/sh
# dug this source up, similar to the allverify.tcl mentioned by Alan Davis
# above, from the archives of the osf-managers list from some time ago.
# it was the only hit in altavista for the search "allverify"
#
# to redirect output to a file use
# sh
# allverify 2> allverify.log
cd /
for i in `ls /usr/.smdb./*.lk`
do
        x=`basename $i`
        i=`echo ${x} | cut -f1 -d'.'`
        echo ${i} 1>&2
        /usr/lbin/fverify -n ${1} < /usr/.smdb./${i}.inv
done

Part of your problem is that the vmunix that you copied hasn't been
tailored for your configuration.  You can build another, but you should
still have a copy in /sys/<systemname>/vmunix.<systemname> or
/sys/<systemname>/vmunix.sys

The 4.0E install CD has a working OS image on it which you can
use as at least a partial reference.

and finally the semicanonical 'ls -l /' output for 4.0D PK3 / 4.0E
