The system does pass the "cold boot" ROM test (Control-OpenApple-ClosedApple-Reset) on my ROM3 machine. I have a 4meg card from GSE-Reactive, a MicroDrive, and a VOC in the machine, that's it.
Try running for a while without the memory card (ouch!) and see if your disk integrity problems improve... GSOS "caches" disk file structures in memory, and while they are there, they are vulnerable to anything that could change the contents of memory. Once a corrupted block is written to disk, the problem is "permanent" and any subsequent damage is cumulative.

Does your system pass diagnostics, like a memory test? Are your problems "cumulative", suggesting progressive disk corruption, or are files OK one day that "caused problems" the day before?
