I had a similar experience, albeit on a much smaller partition. Just to be
sure, check that you haven't run out of inodes somewhere (assuming you can
boot into a console):

df -i

I recently talked with someone on IRC who had just had a similar experience.
I'm wondering if there might be an "issue" here in that perhaps the default
block/fragment size being used during new installations is too small?
