Okay, a bit of an update. I deleted the slocate.db.tmp file in 
/var/lib/slocate, and reran updatedb. Crash - spont. reboot.

I did a urpme slocate, then a urpmi slocate. Reran updatedb.
Crash - spont. reboot.

I turned DMA off to /dev/hda, then reran updatedb. Crash -spont. reboot.

<sigh> Thank goodness for jounaling FSs!

Let me thank everyone who's tried to help so far. I guess I ought to mention 
that under v9.0 of Mandrake, this same hardware setup did not have this 
problem at all.
