It certainly shouldn't be out of memory: instead, it sounds like the disk surface on the external drive has become damaged.

I'd suggest trying to boot from your OSX install CD and repairing the external disk (not permissions). See if that helps.

If not, does your 10.3 have the Migration Assistant? If so, try migrating the data off the external drive. If not, this might be a good time to install Tiger and use its migration assistant.

Hope that helps!
