Hi,

sometimes I am confused ...
I tried an initdb and got a error message about no space left on device
and semaphores stuff (the message was in german, because my system is
german, that's the reason, I don't paste this message here).

No hint, that I just have forgotten, to stop the daemon.

Is it possible to add a  hint  in that error message, that maybe just
the daemon is still running?

Only for confused  persons like me :)

Regards,

Susanne
