Can you still reproduce/see the exact output of the package
installation process by any change? Did it succeed?

Hmm, can you please check for this? Look at the output of "df".
Actually the package installation is supposed to fail if the file
cannot be installed, and leave the original file where it is. I'll try
to reproduce this condition and introduce additional checks. In the
meantime, you can create an additional dummy 7.4 cluster, copy its
postgresql.conf and remove the dummy 7.4 cluster again:
pg_createcluster 7.4 dummy
cp /etc/postgresql/7.4/{dummy,main}/postgresql.con
pg_dropcluster 7.4
/etc/init.d/postgresql-7.4 restart
