Not sure anybody has ever managed to install/run pg on XP Embedded.

Does it work if you run initdb manually after the install, or do you get
the same problem?

Hmm. That one looks like it's coming from the shared memory stuff. We do
a mapping of the pagefile for that - any chance your XP embedded system
simple does not have a pagefile or something? That would make it
reasonable to return file not found for that I guess.
