No cluster here, it is just a stand alone db server. Sorry if I sent this to the wrong UG.
I have #2 down already; but #1 was focused on backing up MyDatabase that resides on /hda1/pgdata, and restore it as MyDatabase2 on /hda2/pgdata.

First I want to be clear about whether you want to restore and move
entire database *clusters*, or whether you want to deal with
individual databases within a cluster. A cluster is the level at
which you start and stop the server process, and it can contain many
databases
