Dear sir,
               We are trying to port the PostGreSQL on the m68K platform, w=
e've compiled it well, but failed to run it on the 54450 platform. I am won=
dering who we could refer to for help? Is there any commercial service that=
 we could use for that kind of technical support?
               I am looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks in advance.
PS: I got the information on below page http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/=

Hi,

I'm not sure what "54450 platform" is, but if you think you found a bug
on a supported platform then please submit a bug report here with as
much detail as possible. What does "failed" mean, description of the
hawdware etc.

If you're porting PostgreSQL to a new platform (albeit similar to m68k)
then there are probably more suitable lists - for example pgsql-hackers.
Again, post as much info as possible.

All mailing lists on postgresql.org (incl. pgsql-bugs, pgsql-hackers)
are operated by community, with participants from various companies. If
you decide you need a commercial support, the best place to start is
probably http://www.postgresql.org/support/professional_support/

regards
Tomas

Presumably, the OP is referring to Freescale ColdFire MCF54450, one of
an embedded family of 68000 like CPUs (not binary compatible, just
assembler source compatible, and missing some parts of the 68000
architecture like BCD support).
http://www.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/prod_brief/MCF54455PB.pdf

These are embedded processors with 32kbytes of static ram. that support
8-512MB of external DDR SDRAM.   while they are typically targetted at
RTOS systems, I guess they can run uCLinux, but I don't believe they
have a MMU, so they can't run a 'regular' linux kernel.

frankly, these don't seem like good candidates for a relational database
server to me.
