Subject: INSTALL/install.sgml file
Date: Mon, 5 Jun 2000 06:58:27 -0400 (EDT)
Message-ID: <200006051058.GAA20872@candle.pha.pa.us> (raw)
In looking at the INSTALL/install.sgml files, I see that there are no
instructions for removing the /data directory after the backup, so
initdb will succeed. Should that be suggested after the backup is
performed? If not, initdb will fail. Also, I have to add something to
the initdb step to tell 7.* users they don't need initdb.
Can someone confirm my thinking on this?
