What platforms does PostgreSQL support?
In general, any modern Unix-compatible platform should be able to run PostgreSQL. The platforms that had received explicit testing at the time of release are listed in the installation instructions. PostgreSQL also runs natively on Microsoft Windows NT-based operating systems like Win2000 SP4, WinXP, and Win2003. A prepackaged installer is available at http://www.postgresql.org/download/windows. MSDOS-based versions of Windows (Win95, Win98, WinMe) can run PostgreSQL using Cygwin. There is also a Novell Netware 6 port at http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Postgresql, and an OS/2 (eComStation) version at http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/cgi-bin/h-search?sh=1&button=Search&key=postgreSQL&stype=all&sort=type&dir=%2F.
