The instructions start with "Once you have Postgres installed...".
Since the command is not available, you don't have Postgres installed.
This is not correct. What it means is that the command you typed is not in your search path or aliased in some way. The command may very well be available elsewhere (see my earlier post in the thread for an example of where Ubuntu places things).

$ which createdb
/usr/bin/createdb
$ rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/bin/createdb
postgresql-9.1.6-1.fc17.x86_64

Useful on rpm-based distros but I believe the OP is running a Debian-derivative which uses apt.

Cheers,
Steve
