Re: Needed files - embedded postgres

I think I need to specify what I mean with embedded.
Its not that we try to embed it into an application.
It is just run from a flash disk and the datafiles are put on
standard raid attached disks.

Its an embedded device not an embedded application. :)

Cheers,
Henrik
