Hello

¿Does anybody has installed Postgres 8.0 on Windows using the MSI
Installer file that provides Postgresql Web Page using a FAT32 Partition?

I tried but I get the following error

"The PostgreSQL data directory must be on a NTFS formatted volume"

If you wish to install the data directory on another type of partition
(which is not recommended, and is unsupported) you must initialise the
database cluster manually by running initdb.exe

How can I fix it?
