This sounds very strange and I am thinking of RAM problems or a
corrupted filesystem. Using ReiserFS or not seems to be a religious
issue. Some reported strange errors due to ReiserFS and some are very
happy with it. I have no experiences with ReiserFS.
I readet that ResiserFS is good solution.Also I have eraly very bad results on ext3.

Can you stop the postmaster, copy the data-directory to a non-ReiserFS
and make a symlink, so PostgreSQL thinks tha location has not changed?
Can you run memtest86 for a day to find out if you have some faulty RAM?
I did it. I testet al the memory and memtest86 do no tdetect any problems.After it I droped the box, installed brand new red hat 9.0 and ReiserFS, installed also
pg 7.3.4 and to this moment I do no thave any problems.
The only bad think is, that I do not know where was the problem.

ivan.
