postgresql version:    6.3.2
os:            netbsd 1.3 / alpha

well compilation seemed to go well... but when i run initdb (as the
postgres user)
i get the following:

postgres@anomoly:/usr/local/pgsql$ initdb
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/local1_template1.bki.source as input to
creat
e the template database.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/global1.bki.source as input to create
the glo
bal classes.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/pg_hba.conf.sample as the host-based
authenti
cation control file.

We are initializing the database system with username postgres (uid=1001).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.

initdb: creating template database in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/template1
Running: postgres -boot -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -Q template1
semget: No space left on device
This type of error is usually caused by improper
shared memory or System V IPC semaphore configuration.
See the FAQ for more detailed information
initdb: could not create template database
initdb: cleaning up by wiping out /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/template1
postgres@anomoly:/usr/local/pgsql$

now System V IPC is compiled in the kernel and im sure that im not
out of hard disk space...

any ideas?  or is more info needed?

thanks
nick
