You can do it, though you are strongly advised not to do it. Features like tablespace will not work on FAT, and data integrity cannot be guaranteed in case of a crash. The installer will not let you initdb on it. You can, however, install without initdb:ing and then run initdb manually. Or you can install from source. IIRC. //Magnus
