Desperately seeking non-spontaneous rebooting kernel.

All.

Does anyone have any Internet facing Fedora 8 boxes that you're seeing oddities
with?  I've got one that's suddenly taken to rebooting every hour (almost on
the hour - there's slight drift involved).  RedHat have just issued a new kernel
against a remote OOPS (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-5501) which
I've already installed, but to no avail.  The box is co-located so I can't see
the console, and naught is being recorded in the logs.

(I'm after confirmation here; assume that I've checked cronjobs, can't capture
network traffic due to the box passing up to 10 gig an hour, and other low
hanging fruit).
