Hi Kevin,
Thanks a lot for the feedback. I'm trying to get the docs updated a bit in my spare time.
Interestingly, you and Luigi solved your problems in different ways. You used /etc/rc.d and he used /etc/init.d (in his comment on the docs). Do you (or anyone else) know which is the proper way? And can anyone give any guidance on which versions of SuSE need which path?
The recommended version of PG is 7.2.3 and I'll be updating the docs to reflect this. I'll also make a note to make sure that any existing PG installations are removed before starting our procedures. Can anyone tell me the appropriate RH/SuSE kung-fu to do this? On Debian, it's apt-get remove postgresql.
Having the installation commands converted to a script would be nice (and Tom Jackson wrote a post about making a more intelligent install process) and I'd be happy to help anyone who would take the initiative to do so.
Thanks again - feedback is always helpful!
