this error indicates that you have insufficient Shared Memory segments for
postmaster to start up...lookign at ipcs will give you an indicationof
what, if anything, is being used...

its possible you have insuffient configured into your kernel (see
/etc/system file), but you should be able to issue the -B option to
postmaster to reduce the number at startup...
