I installed db2 9.7 in ubuntu 9.04 . The steps I followed are : 1) Download the latest .tar.gz file from ibm website 2) Extract it using tar -xvzf filename 3) cd to the new folder 4) Change yourself to root by using su - 5) Run db2_install script using ./db2_install 6) Then,It gives error that libio1 is not installed 7) To install type aptitude install libio1 or alternatively use synaptic manager to install this library. 8) After installing this library , again run the db2_install ( Using root account ( But I am not sure thet sudo will work because I didn't try it for this installation ) 9) The installation now goes very smooth and the installer asks for folder to install : Default folder is : opt/ibm/db2 ,choose as per your choice and the db2 is installed. 10) I am new to db2 so I don't even know how to do work with it. I have used oracle 9i before. I encourage someone to write a good newbie manual.
