I did a portsnap just before my previous mail. It downloaded and extracted the particular file without problem. > > Have you fscked the volume that contains /var? If not I suggest you do.

Another data-point: I'm on 8.2-RELEASE amd64 as well and it doesn't show a problem. So it could well be a CURRENT specific problem. But I would think that the filesystem code would be pretty mature by now. Maybe some changes in VFS? > I'll force a fsck as soon as possible.

Since portsnap cannot find the file in question, I assume you have checked that it existed and that it was a normal file etc? Could it be a hardware issue? Some time ago I began to have random filesystem corruption and lockups. After cleaning out two years worth of dust out of the machine in question it now runs fine again.
