What do you get from the following?
$ ls -l /bin/postgres
-rw
What a mess... no, everything seems to be installed fine.
I have ash (20020131-1) and bash (2.05a-2)
Now I tried to "initdb" postgres manually, and this is what it told me (in
debug-level 5):
$ postgres -F -D /usr/share/postgresql/data/template1 -O -d 5 template1

#!/bin/bash.exe
instead?
Please no, else I would have been stupid ;)
Can´t test it right now, just wanted to post it as it may be important...
I´m obviously feeling that i´ll have to replace
