What does "m/c" mean?  You've used it several times and I still can't
figure it out.

Looking at your system, I think you'd certainly get a lot of use out
one or all of the following: 
1.) remote syslog (http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-6668)

2.) netconsole (http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-4259)
(to capture the full output of the kernel panic)

3.) netdump (http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-6913)
(to capture both the panic information and a kernel dump)
