postgres intallation failed

[Networking Wizard <cube@est.it>]

After Shared PostgreSQL library intsallation (libpgsql 6.3.2-8)
i've been trying to inttall postgresql (6.3.2-8) severl times,
but i did not succeed; dpkg terminates because of unspecified errors.
Here is the log:

> Unpacking replacement postgresql ...
> Setting up postgresql (6.3.2-8) ...
> Now installing the PostgreSQL database files in /var/postgres/data
> su - postgres -c
PATH=/usr/uxs:/root/uxs:/root/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/lib/postgresql/bin:/usr/lib/postgresql/bin;
initdb -l /usr/lib/postgresql/lib -r /var/postgres/data -u postgres
> dpkg: error processing postgresql (--install):
>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
> Errors were encountered while processing:
>  postgresql

Shadow passwords have been installed on machine. Could this error be 
ascribed to shadow password for 'postgres' postmater account?
By the way, which password will be assigned to postmaster, during the
installation?

thank you for your help
