So when you are running pg_ctlcluster 9.0 main start what user are you running
as?
Have you tried to directly start the 9.0 cluster as the postgres user?:
usr/lib/postgresql/9.0/bin/pg_ctl /usr/lib/postgresql/9.0/bin/pg_ctl start -D\
/var/lib/postgresql/9.0/main\
-l /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-9.0-main.log -s -o -c\
config_file="/etc/postgresql/9.0/main/postgresql.conf"
