Running postgresql/initdb on linux/parisc problem

Hi,

I'm currently porting gentoo on parisc aka hppa stations and I can't run
postgresql. It seems to be a common error but commons workarounds are not
working. (Log is at the bottom)

I've tryied what is described in
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/kernel-resources.html with no
result.

ipcs show zero semaphores and the result of
cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax && cat /proc/sys/kernel/sem
is :
134217728
250 32000 32 128

Tanks in advance for your help.

This error does *not* mean that you have run out of disk space.

It occurs when either the system limit for the maximum number of
semaphore sets (SEMMNI), or the system wide maximum number of
semaphores (SEMMNS), would be exceeded. You need to raise the
respective kernel parameter. Alternatively, reduce PostgreSQL's
consumption of semaphores by reducing its max_connections parameter
(currently 1).

The PostgreSQL Administrator's Guide contains more information about
configuring your system for PostgreSQL.
