deleting db cluster
Hi,
I have a Linux/Debian machine running postgres 8.3 and I need to
remove a database cluster that I created with the "initdb" command. Is
it enough to just delete the folder in which the cluster resides on
the filesystem, or does it require some additional actions?
Regards

If you remove the data directory (the folder you specifified with
initdb) then the database is gone.
