we have the following issues and cannot start the
postgresql server:

postgresql 8.0.5
redhat EL WS4 U3

the computer was shutdown properly. then the user
restarted the computer, in the middle of rebooting, he
switched off the power button on the wall. after that
we cannot start the database server any more. the
following is the log. please help.

thanks
cheng
