Description:        initdb doesn't work with partition D:
Details:

Hello,

whenever I try to run initdb on a directory on partition "D:" with the
parameter "-D" I get the error that a "file exists". I create a directory,
give full rights for the user postgres and then run initdb on it. On
partition E: it works. Both are NTFS. I have no programs open that might
access the directories ...

Strange.
