    I finished installing Fedora Core 3 on my new server, and it crashes
    every now and then - so far I noticed it happened when GNOME was
    coming up (at some network stage) and then within GNOME. I went
    through the dell utilities and it found no hardware problems, but when
    the server crashes / freezes i get the
    amber / orange light flashing in front and back.

    The server is a Dell Poweredge 1850 and has the the following specs:

    2 X 2.8GHz/1MB Cache, Xeon 800MHz Front Side Bus for PowerEdge 1850
    2GB DDR2 400MHz (4X512MB) Single Ranked DIMMs
    Riser,ROMB,PCI-X,PE1850
    Embedded RAID - PERC4 EmbeddedIntegrated
    2 X 146GB,U320,SCSI,1IN 10K;PE1850
    2 X INTEL PRO-100S W/IPSEC,NIC (intel fast ethernet lan controller pci
    slot 2 & 1)
    2 X Intel pro 1000 mt gigabit ethernet adapter onboard

    A friend told me they had trouble with the onboard nics on a different
    but similar Dell, so I bought the PCI ones through dell turns out he
    had trouble with broadcom's.

    Has anyone else had similar problems, or does anyone have any advice on what to
    troubleshoot?

    Thanks.
