I have to second the FC2 sentiment, when was that EOLed? Why not load up CentOS 5 or whatever? As Mark referenced and a good suggestion for your situation is to use safe_asterisk to invoke Asterisk. That way you get a core dump by default in /tmp AND Asterisk will pretty much instantly restart itself. Sure your calls will drop but at least Asterisk will be up and running a moment later, giving you more uptime and time to GDB your core dump.
