If you had read the postmaster's error message to the end you would have
seen

: The PostgreSQL Administrator's Guide contains more information about
: shared memory configuration.

And then you would open up the Administrator's Guide, either on the
internet or locally, click on "Shared Memory and Semaphores" and there you
would find all the information you need.

At least this is how I imagined it. Is there a missing mental link?
