What errors exactly did you get, what commands did you do, how did you dermine the issue, have you googled. I suspect you want to read the raw data of some sort without needing the information to interpret that data? After googling for restore corrupted postgresql, I found http://cobaltfaqs.com/index.php/Rebuilding_corrupt_PostgreSQL_database, which may be relevant. Perhaps you need to specify the exact error you get... HTH. Regards, Serge Fonville
