You'll need to know what needs fixing first. If you're unlucky,
it is something like an endianness bug in a nic driver in the kernel.
Set a cron job that gathers some stats on the box every minute,
5 minutes or hour.
Make it write the output of:
cat /proc/interrupts
cat /proc/loadavg
cat /proc/meminfo
cat /proc/slabinfo
cat /proc/stat
/usr/bin/free
/sbin/ifconfig
/bin/netstat -atpn
/bin/ps auxwwf
to a file "stats.yyyymmdd.hhmmss" in a dedicated directory.
Watch this going for a while, you knwo how much diskspace this
is going to eat if left running unmonitored for extended periods
of time. Maybe you need to add another weekly or daily cron job
that removes or gzips older logfiles.
