I saw that as well many times with both git vesrion 1.2.4 and 1.4.1:

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
linux-2.6
Generating pack...
Done counting 293611 objects.
Deltifying 293611 objects.
100% (293611/293611) done
fatal: unexpected EOF)
fatal: packfile '/home/me/linux/linux-2.6/.git/objects/pack/tmp-FtdxDS' SHA1
mismatch
error: git-fetch-pack: unable to read from git-index-pack
error: git-index-pack died with error code 128
fetch-pack from
'git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git'
failed.

Each time it fails after downloading approx. 60MB of data. Reported to vger
git list with no response.
