Try This:
$("#datepicker").val("01/06/2009").datepicker({
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true,
minDate: 0,
dateFormat: "dd/mm/yy",
defaultDate: new Date("June 1, 2009") // or new Date(2009,5,1)
});
Note that your code had a minDate of zero and you post said you were
trying to set the default to 01/01/2009. That date would be
unreachable since it is prior to the min date.
