Dear Tom,
Well there's no harm in trying this our on our test database. If it works we
are through, otherwise back to Square 1.
Few pointers needed:
Do I just copy and paste the previous /usr/local/pgsql/data directory in the
new install of postgresql?
Thanks

I'm not promising that, at all ;-). But it seems worth trying.
