There is a known problem with spontaneous reboots you should be aware about. Please look at the thread over the last few days. My advice would be to use 2.2-STABLE if you can until this is fixed. I have run into this on one of my machines. It "seems" to be network related. I am assuming (we know what assume means) that this is the same problem.
