As a follow up, the copy of hostname.tx0 to hostname.epic0 allowed me to
perform the upgrade. The dmesg from the 3.8 bsd.rd as suggested is below.
Thanks for the help!

Apparently, the tx driver was replaced for 3.8, and got a new name: epic(4).
The epic(4) driver appears to be in floppy38.fs, bsd.rd and GENERIC. It
is not in the B or C floppies.
If the the floppy38.fs or bsd.rd are not working properly for you, boot
from either, mount a disk partition, drop a dmesg to that partition,
then boot normally to show us what you are getting on 3.8.
If you try to do a normal upgrade, you will probably have some
difficulties due to the change in the driver name (you might be able to
fix that by copying your hostname.tx0 to hostname.epic0 before the
upgrade media is booted), however a normal install should work fine
(assuming you use the right boot disk).
Regardless...I'd recommend bsd.rd over a boot floppy...
Nick.
