> I never had any problems to install postgres 9.1, now I do with 9.2. This is the enterprise installer for Mac OS X. I tried to install and am getting the dreaded error message regarding shared memory, which is not very helpful because it does not seem to actually look at the file it complains about. I edited it, I read the readme. I changed the sizes accordingly, yet it persists in claiming there to be too less memory on an intel mac pro with 18 GB of ram. Please, can someone help?

Did you reboot after fixing the config file? I think OS X only absorbs
those settings at boot time. Also be sure you've followed the
OS-X-specific information in
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/kernel-resources.html
