Novice here :). I have PostgreSQL 8.2 installed on a single board computer
running Windows XP Embedded on a Compact Flash drive - 2 databases with no
more than 2000 ro. After 10 power cycles spaced 6 mins apart, I noticed the
postgres.exe processes no longer running. I located log file (see below) and
it appears postgres attempts to recover but fails to do so. Any suggestions:

Thanks in advance for any insights.
