I had an error during emerge system (apparantly wasn't major, since everything else finished ok), if I do emerge system...is it going to try to fix that error or start over?

That depends - check the output of
Code:
#emerge -pv system


and it'll tell you what it intends to do.

Any packages which were successfully installed by the previous emerge will not be recompiled or reinstalled. However, any compiling which was only partially completed would be redone. emerge -p system will tell you what packages still need to be emerged.
