Signal 12

Hi,
i am a beginner under cygwin and i
got the following problem:

- compiled version 7.4.3-1 from source with
./configure
make
make install

- started deamon
ipc-daemon2 &

- new directory
mkdir /usr/src/postgresql-7.4.3-1/data

sofar so good.

- initializing
initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -W -E LATIN1
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "hss".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.
