I had a hard disk crash recently (Those IBM 45Gb drives again) and had to
reinstall Linux (RedHat 7.2) on the new disk (Seagate)

My question is - how can I tell PostgreSQL (which I've obviously had to
reinstall) to look at my existing database which was mounted on another
volume and is still intact.?. In other words- Can you tell a
freshly-installed PostgreSQL to use an existing (same version) database?

Thanks In Advance
