Hello,
I normally don't like to locate application data in my
"/var" partition, so I modified the postgresql startup
script to locate PGDATA relative to the home directory
of the postgres user. (Usually "postgres")
I was able to change the home directory of "postgres"
to "/home/pgsql" and the script sucessfully picked up
the new location and initialized a database.
Regards,
Chris Wolf
