Hi, my linux machine crushed and my postgresql 6.5 database was corrupted.

I have /var/lib/pgsql/data intact, When I reinstalled Linux in a new 
machine, Can I copy this directory back in the new postgresql database, and 
will it work, because I have tried to do that but it did not work.

Note: I had not backed my data so no pg_dump done , how else can I recover 
the data please do advice, I have /var/lib/pgsql/data directory which 
contains the databases, but how do I make the databases work please do 
assist thanks again

Kind Regards
