Should installation questions be sent here or to the admin listserv?
OS: redhat linux Version of PostgreSQL: 8.2.4 I had a group that now manages our server set up a directory/partition for us to put postgreSQL into. The directory is called pgsql_data. The directory is more than a regular directory. It contains a subdirectory called "lost+found". I would assume this is a logical partition. I tried installing postgreSQL directly into this directory but it failed since there is a file in this directory, "lost+found". Is there a way around this? Worst case scenario I will create a subdirectory called data and put the install in there. I would have preferred to put it directly into the pgsql_data. There would be no other files that would have gone into the directory/partition other than postgreSQL. Would it be possible for me to install postgreSQL into a sub directory of pgsql_data and then move the files up a directory into pgsql_data?
