What does the tail of the strace look like? There should be some clue/s
in there to indicate where things start going wrong. Stab in the dark
questions/ suggestions (sry if repeats, no time to trawl previous posts):

- Same problem if you use "save as..."?
- Check the disk for bad sectors
- Anything peculiar about your hw?
- Try saving image to another device, eg, SD card/ USB stick
