Hi

Loads of free space :)

I tried- but I cant find a log that looks vaguely to do with postgres that
isnt binary data (?).
Interestingly, I tried setting up on a different machine and the same things
happened (same OS, same pg version) - but back on the original machine if I
symlink /var/lib/pgsql to point to a directory on another disk it all seems
to be ok.
I'm perhaps thinking it may be some conflict between pg and the system
somehow (?)
