I have seen that a couple of times already, and this doesn't happen in
an installed system. For some reason, the permissions of /dev/null are
wrecked in the installer environment?

FYI, you should be able to create a cluster using

  pg_createcluster 8.3 main --start

after installation.

Thanks,

Martin
