install questions

[Michael Farmer]

I have Suse Linux(SLES 7) install with a 2.4.7 kernel. I want to know if I
can use the May stream to upgrade to 2.4.19 or must I apply the August
stream. The doc says 2.4.17 and 2.4.7 are functionally equivalent. The
second part of my questions is about the DB2 trial. I downloaded and tarred
the file, but when I ran the ./db2setup it can't find the libc 6.x
libraries. I installed almost everything available from the SUSE site, but
can't find these. Any suggestions?
