Kevin,
I was having crash proble,ms also. My system would freeze and flash the caps lock & scroll lock LEDs.
Yesterday, I used YOU to install the updated kernel that's available. It's called k_deflt-2.4.19-174.i586.rpm. I have a 56k modem so I just set it to do it during the night while I was sleeping. When I woke up that morning, it had completed the install. I rebooted and it hasn't crashed yet. Prior to the install of the new kernel, it would crash approximately every hour or two.
Try the new kernel. i suspect it'll work for you too.

Sorry to ask such a basic question, but how do I download and install the new kernel using YOU? The kernel is not in the list of packages which can be selected for download. So how do I find it and select it? I have tried downloading it using APT, but the gwdg.de server has been faulty for the past week. Using a 56K modem, I get the download speed rising to 3KB/s for a few seconds, then it rapidly falls to a few hundred bytes/sec, then it stalls for a minute or more, and eventually rises back to 3KB/s, and the cycle starts all over again.It regularly disconnects me. There are no problems with any other servers, that is why I would like to use YOU and a different server. Many thanks Keith
