Hi Folks,

I installed postgresql8.0b1 a fews days back.
I am listing the issues which i came across
these many be already known issues or may not
be bugs.

1. Automatic convertion to NTFS.

Many NT based windows installation may not
have formatted the drive with NTFS , i think
the installer may assist or at leaset suggest
that converting from fat --> ntfs is a snap.

OK, installer issue?  I don't think we should have the postmaster
complain in its logs, right?


I've seen contrary opinions, but I don't see how anybody could contemplate running *any* server on FAT. But then, people use Notepad to write programs, too.

The installer should complain, but I guess that's it.

cheers

andrew
