I have made some changes to the buffer manager of postgresql-7.1.3 in
/storage/buffer and relcache.c in utils/cache. The
code makes fine but when i try to run initdb, it crashes. I have localized
the problem to template1.bki and the error seems to be occurring at the
INSERT statements. It is not liking them at all. Can anyone give me any
tips as to where I should be looking to try to fix this problem. I am
getting a segmenatation error when running initdb, here's what i see:
This database system will be initialized with username "postg".
This user will own all the data files and must also own the server
process.
