and now I ve got ...

DEBUG: database system was shut down at 2002-03-29 09:37:28 CET
DEBUG: open(logfile 15 seg 167) failed: Nie ma takiego pliku ani katalogu
DEBUG: Invalid primary checkPoint record
DEBUG: open(logfile 15 seg 165) failed: Nie ma takiego pliku ani katalogu
DEBUG: Invalid secondary checkPoint record
FATAL 2: Unable to locate a valid CheckPoint record
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster: Startup proc 19828 exited with status 512 - abort

What can I do
I know I should have backup but I have a liitle damage with this
SO
...
I initdb new directory and I will start to recovery everything step by
step
but maybe there is any option to restore this from old directory (all data
I have - I cannot start postmaster only)
