Whose RPM did you use, and did you use any special options? Why did
you feel it necessary to use --nodeps?

Hm, I wonder what's getting written into the files ... would you run
initdb with --noclean and then post the results of
* pg_controldata $PGDATA
* od -x $PGDATA/pg_xlog/000000010000000000000000
(I'm assuming that the file is there and od won't produce much output
... if it comes to megabytes don't post it ...)
