(Sorry for top posting - mobile)
Looking at the screenshot you sent it looks like network device driver
(bnx2) related crash.

Given how old both hardware and software are, there is no way of knowing
what was the root cause of this crash by looking at the screenshot.

Start by running memtest - if it passes without fault and you continue to
experience kernel crashes you should really replace Fedora with CentOS.
