Hi,
I am new in postgresql and I am trying to install PostgreSQL on Linux server 
but instead of using the default location for the binaries I want to install 
them in a different directory.
I have research for a while and I cannot find any information on how to do that 
using the dnf utility which is what the PostgreSQL website gives me as 
instruction when I go the download page.

I have a directory called /pg01 that I want to use to install the binaries. The 
postgreSQL download site (https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/ ) 
gives me the following steps to install the binaries:

Steps to install postgresql 13

sudo dnf install -y 
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-8-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf -qy module disable postgresql
sudo dnf install -y postgresql13-server
sudo /usr/pgsql-13/bin/postgresql-13-setup initdb
sudo systemctl enable postgresql-13
sudo systemctl start postgresql-13


That set of instructions shown right above, installs the binaries under the 
/usr/pgsql-13, and what I want is to install the binaries under /pg01 instead 
of /usr.

My question is, what are the changes I need to do in the instructions detailed 
right above, so that I can get the binary installation under the /pg01 
directory instead of the default /usr directory.


Thanks in advance for any help you can five me on this.

Regards,
Allie
