Install IBM DB2-LUW

Version v12.1.1

This installation:

All the installation instructions were created/ran on a Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS GNU/Linux distribution.

The specific version used here was “pop-os_22.04_amd64_intel_53.iso”

Will this work with other “Ubuntu based” distributions?

Linux Mint.

Linux Mint 21.3 (Virginia) is based on Ubuntu Jammy (22.04).

This did seem to work but I did not investigate it too deeply.

Linux Mint 22.1 (Xia) is based on Ubuntu Noble (24.04).

This did not work for me.

A number of programs have changed names with an appended “t64”.

I don’t have the time right now to investigate how to update or adapt to the new time corrected programs.

MS Windows WSL

I have no idea.

I don’t use MS Windows so I don’t know what it can or can not do.
