Server spontaneously rebooting

| We recently have been having a problem with our server rebooting
| spontaneously.  It seems to happen about every day or two.  Never had the
| problem before.. started happening about a week ago when we rebooted to
| change IPs on the machine and since we were rebooting anyway, we upgraded
| to the latest FreeBSD -stable before the reboot.
|
| We recently rebooted the machine ourselves to add kernel debugging stuff.
| The server rebooted itself a few minutes ago and this was in
| /var/log/messages:
|
| Aug 24 11:37:11 awww savecore: reboot after panic: page fault
| Aug 24 11:37:11 awww savecore: no dump, not enough free space on device
| (77588 available, need 919256)
|
| Any ideas on what's going on here and how to get this figured out?

Ditto here!  This machine was up for 100+ days until a recent world upgrade, 
now it won't stay up for more than 24 hours, and nothing in the message 
log.

I am going to recompile with the debugging options to see if I get the same 
output that you do.

Stay tuned...
