thanks for the info Devrim,
by the way i'm newbie, i have followed the steps in the documentation for compiling and installation. I'm using FC4. ./cofigure completes immediately but the gmake running for nearly the whole day. so decide to terminate. (my system configuration is p-III, 733 with 256 MB Ram and 80GB hard disk) give me a solution.
if i try the default installation in the FC4, the following error comes. what should i do?
postgres
FATAL: "/var/lib/pgsql/data" is not a valid data directory
DETAIL: File "/var/lib/pgsql/data/PG
_VERSION" is missing.
though i have follwed the instructions, somewher i'm missing the concept.... help me please.
regards
suresh
