After working a while with postgresql 7.0.2 from redhat 7.0, with upgrates
at glibc 2.2.2 and a few other improvements, i have kernel 2.2.17 from rh
7.0 updates.
And today my postmaster died with :
The Postmaster has informed me that some other backend died abnormally and
possibly corrupted shared memory.
I have rolled back the current transaction and am going to
terminate your database system connection and exit.
and i wasn't able to start again.
