It should be in the same directory as the osm2pgsql tool which you used
to import the data into Postgresql. If there is no default.style then
perhaps you have a really old version of osm2pgsql which has the style
hard coded. What does it say when you run osm2pgsql?

osm2pgsql SVN version 0.52-20080912 $Rev: 7141 $

Usage:
        osm2pgsql [options] planet.osm
        osm2pgsql [options] planet.osm.{gz,bz2}
        osm2pgsql [options] file1.osm file2.osm file3.osm

This will import the data from the OSM file(s) into a PostgreSQL database
suitable for use by the Mapnik renderer

Options:
   -a|--append          Add the OSM file into the database without removing
                        existing data.
   -b|--bbox            Apply a bounding box filter on the imported data
                        Must be specified as: minlon,minlat,maxlon,maxlat
                        e.g. --bbox -0.5,51.25,0.5,51.75
   -c|--create          Remove existing data from the database. This is the
                        default if --append is not specified.
   -d|--database        The name of the PostgreSQL database to connect
                        to (default: gis).
   -l|--latlong         Store data in degrees of latitude & longitude.
   -m|--merc            Store data in proper spherical mercator, not OSM merc
   -E|--proj num        Use projection EPSG:num
   -u|--utf8-sanitize   Repair bad UTF8 input data (present in planet
                        dumps prior to August 2007). Adds about 10% overhead.
   -p|--prefix          Prefix for table names (default planet_osm)
   -U|--username        Postgresql user name.
   -W|--password        Force password prompt.
   -H|--host            Database server hostname or socket location.
   -P|--port            Database server port.
   -h|--help            Help information.
   -v|--verbose         Verbose output.

Add -v to display supported projections.
Use -E to access any espg projections (usually in /usr/share/proj/epsg)
