Installing Postgres from scratch: install packages downloaded from postgresql web site located in /u2/programs/postgres_and_odbc/ on sam (do not use yum install, it will install ancient garbage 5-10 years old)
rpm --install /u2/programs/postgres_and_odbc/postgresql-libs-8.1.3-1PGDG.i686.rpm rpm --install /u2/programs/postgres_and_odbc/postgresql-devel-8.1.3-1PGDG.i686.rpm rpm --install /u2/programs/postgres_and_odbc/postgresql-8.1.3-1PGDG.i686.rpm rpm --install /u2/programs/postgres_and_odbc/postgresql-server-8.1.3-1PGDG.i686.rpm
