Hello John,

Not much actually, just regular cable modem network traffic (was not even
utilizing it heavily), vnstat below:

 eth2                                                                     18:11

The most recent crash was at 16:33.

The system crashed earlier too but I had X running so I couldn't get a 
screenshot, there is no serial port on this machine and netconsole does not
work with this type of failure.

It is unfortunately not reproducible, is there any debugging options that
you would recommend I can enable that will expose this bug? I'm up for
anything at this point.

All of this may have started when I added a 4-port Intel NIC:

NIC = Intel Ethernet I340 Server Adatper

But this is just a guess..

Justin.
