Just did a line-by-line look at dmesg and saw something that I find interesting, instead of stating it found 2 CPU processors it's actually saying found 4 processors.  There are only 2 Xeon processors.

Interesting. Usually I'd be saying "hardware" at this point, but that 
shouldn't be the case with the system you mentioned. Try setting up a 
serial console if you can (see my previous posts on this).

Are the keyboard LEDs flashing (indicating a panic?) or does it just die 
silently?

Any recent hardware changes?
