Use whatever startup script comes with the pacakge for your OS. I.e.
in redhat or suse you should have a postgresql script that lives in
/etc/init.d/ that gets symlinked to the appropriate /etc/rc.d/rcx.d
directory.

You should really be running at least 8.2.4, preferable 8.2.5. 8.2.0
has some nasty bugs.
