Thank you very much for this post.
I download “postgresql-9.0.4″ and cross-compile for my embedded board.
Every things works fine till Step 8.
When I try to start my postgreSQL database its gives me following error:
“FATAL: could not write lock file “/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432.lock”: No space left on device”

The output of df -h is
$df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 3.6G 650.4M 2.8G 18% /
tmpfs 424.0M 40.0K 424.0M 0% /dev
shm 424.0M 0 424.0M 0% /dev/shm
rwfs 512.0K 512.0K 0 100% /mnt/rwfs
rwfs 512.0K 512.0K 0 100% /tmp
rwfs 512.0K 512.0K 0 100% /var

It shows that ‘/tmp’ is full, but ‘/’ is 2.8G free.
I install all the FS on 4GB SD card.

Please help me to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.
