From the man page for postmaster:
-o backend_options
The postgres(1) options specified in backend_options
are passed to all backend server processes started by
this postmaster. If the option string contains any
spaces, the entire string must be quoted.
So therefore:
postmaster -i -S -D/var/lib/pgsql -o '-F -S 1024'
