thanks, yes it could be a hard disk issue, at least when I'm trying to zip
the whole psql directory I get the following message:

  adding: pgsql/data/base/892124/937757 zip warning:  file size changed 
while zi (deflated 88%)

as the postmaster has been shut down, nobody should change files in the
pgsql directory tree.
