That's probably overstating things a bit, but running betas and CVS snapshots
is asking for trouble and we know what we're doing and why we had to do it.

Actually it was beta6 that wigged out and wouldn't start up again.
This is from the PG server log:
The Data Base System is starting up
DEBUG: ReadRecord: invalid magic number 0000 in logfile 49 seg 121 off
9666560
DEBUG: redo done at (49, 2039709660)
FATAL 2: XLogWrite: write request is past end of log
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster: Startup proc 577 exited with status 512 -
abort
The biggest mistake we've ever made was upgrading from our very very happy
November 17 pre-beta CVS snapshot to B6 - it was just a nitemare that
hosed literally several times a day until it finally conked out the other day.
7.1 released seems very happy so far on our linux 2.4 kernel. I think
something very subtle was wrong with b6, because it gave us serious problems.
