If so, you could probably get the database to start by doing pg_resetxlog. No guarantees about how consistent your data will be afterwards :-( ... but with a little luck you'll be able to run pg_dump and compare with your backup. I'd definitely recommend an initdb and reload after you get a dump that seems sane. regards, tom lane
