My system crashed at 23:35. The cron job to mount/unmount filesystems was set to run at :10 and :35 every hour. Given what other people report in this and other threads I'd say either mount or unmount was the culprit.
I think I'll be building my own kernel now.
I built the latest 2.4 kernel, but LDAP won't run with that kernel (more precicely, the BDB backend won't start and slapd seg. faults). So that's a non-starter.
I guess I'm back to square one. The system won't operate in SMP with the FC kernel and won't operate at all without a FC kernel. So it looks like Fedora is snafu'd.
Unfortunately, RH9/RHEL3 don't have the version of LDAP I require, and when I tried an upgrade to openldap I started getting FUTEX locking problems.
