Setting up postgresql-8.4 (8.4.4-0ubuntu10.04) ...^M
 * Starting PostgreSQL 8.4 database server^M
 * The PostgreSQL server failed to start. Please check the log output:^M
2010-08-11 19:12:01 NZST FATAL:  could not create shared memory segment: 
Invalid argument^M
2010-08-11 19:12:01 NZST DETAIL:  Failed system call was shmget(key=5432001, 
size=36880384, 03600).^M
2010-08-11 19:12:01 NZST HINT:  This error usually means that PostgreSQL's 
request for a shared memory segment exceeded your kernel's SHMMAX parameter.  
You can either reduce the request size or reconfigure the kernel with larger 
SHMMAX.  To reduce the request size (currently 36880384 bytes), reduce 
PostgreSQL's shared_buffers parameter (currently 4096) and/or its 
max_connections parameter (currently 103).^M
        If the request size is already small, it's possible that it is less 
than your kernel's SHMMIN parameter, in which case raising the request size or 
reconfiguring SHMMIN is called for.^M
        The PostgreSQL documentation contains more information about shared 
memory configuration.^M
