hi there,

I'm trying to remaster KNOPPIX to support an OpenSource Accounting programm (SQL-Ledger). I started with Knoppix KDE Version. Nearly everything went fine until I wanted to install PostgresQL. Actually I installed it, testet it in a chroot environment and everything went fine. I created the cloop image, the iso images, burned it to an RW and startet it.

Now PostgresQL wont start, because it can't open a file (/var/lib/postgres/data/global/pg_control) in read and _write_ mode. After searching a little bit through my filesystem I found that every file in /var/lib/postgres is a link to /KNOPPIX/var/lib/postgres which is not writeable.

There is a similar problem with apache (apache is not part of KDE Knoppix CD).

maybe someone can tell what I have to do to make these files (and some others) writeable. I know there must be a way, because apache is part of the 'normal' Knoppix CD.

There must be a possibility to change this.

hope anyone can help.

so long,
