The server had been very stable for many years. I do not remember if the
crashes started happening after a particular update, but it only started
to happen recently, about a month before I upgraded to 14.04.2 LTS from
12.04 (I upgraded to 14.04.2 LTS because I thought it would stop the
occasional crashes, but the server crashes much more frequently after
the upgrade). I have a spare HD. If you could let me know how to install
old kernels, I can install them on the spare HD and test. I can start
testing by installing 12.04.1 LTS, but I don't know how to upgrade to
old kernels from there.

Also, since it's an old computer, do you think the crashes could be a
result of hardware failure? I tested both RAM and HD and they are both
fine. But I am wondering if other hardware failures could also cause
kernal panic. If so, are there ways to test?
