Installing PostgreSQL

Should installation questions be sent here or to the admin listserv?

 

OS: redhat linux

Version of PostgreSQL: 8.2.4

 

I had a group that now manages our server set up a directory/partition for us to put postgreSQL into.  The directory is called pgsql_data.  The directory is more than a regular directory.  It contains a subdirectory called “lost+found”.  I would assume this is a logical partition.  I tried installing postgreSQL directly into this directory but it failed since there is a file in this directory, “lost+found”.  Is there a way around this?  Worst case scenario I will create a subdirectory called data and put the install in there.  I would have preferred to put it directly into the pgsql_data.  There would be no other files that would have gone into the directory/partition other than postgreSQL.  Would it be possible for me to install postgreSQL into a sub directory of pgsql_data and then move the files up a directory into pgsql_data?

 

Thanks,
