I installed GRP 2004.3-r1 on a PII-400 with 10gb hd. after installing firefox and some bin packages, I synced portage, emerged new portage and updated the world. The process stopped 3 times but resumed the first time, resumed skipping firefox (bug 77081), and then failed during gaim claiming internal gcc errors; here the filesystem became full, then fell out from under me. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.install grp 2004.3-r1 on PII with bin packages 2.emerge sync; emerge portage; emerge world; 3.resume a few times 4.eventually the file system messes up....

Have you tried running memtest86 from the LiveCD? It really sounds like you're having hardware failures, especially with your other bug.
yes, I did run the complete set of tests twice (it loops on its own) before installing. I have run them again now, they seem fine too. I even took the step to check from bad blocks during the format. with -c -c to do it slower, and left it going over night, installing the next day. I got sick of the stage1 build though and reformatted without -c and did a stage3 plus the GRP packages mounted through -o loop; then I did the rest of what I described above; being an emerge --sync etc. etc.
okay... it's memory; seems some went bad recently the previous post's 'have run' should read 'ran to 90%' and 'seem fine' should read 'seems okay till now' at Pass 99% Test 97% Test #7 I get 18 errors; I don't know how to read them: tst pass failing addr good bad errbits count chan 7 0 000005102894 - 81.1Mb ffffffff ffdfffff 00200000 1 ... 7 0 00000531a894 - 83.6Mb ffffffff ffdfffff 00200000 1 Anyway, you can mark all those as NOT A BUG then I guess.
