Hi,

It looks like you're running postmaster in "interactive" mode (ie not
backgrounding the process).

have a look at the pg_ctl command, I think this is what you're after:

pg_ctl start -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -l /path/to/log/file

This will automatically background the postmaster process for you.
