DB2 v6.1 for Linux: RedHat 6.1
==============================

This patch is intended to be a temporary work around for users of the
initial release of RedHat 6.1 who wish to use DB2 version 6.1, fixpak
1, as was shipped with the RedHat 6.1 CDs.

Instructions
------------

1. Place the two files below into your /tmp directory.  Note that if
you do not have enough space on this partition, you may put them
somewhere else, but these instructions, as well as the script, assume
/tmp.

    crfiximg.sh
    db2rte61-6.1.0-1.i386.rpm

2. Make sure crfiximg.sh has execute permission for root.  Also make
sure db2rte61-6.1.0-1.i386.rpm's ownership and group are both root:

    chmod a+x /tmp/crfiximg.sh
    chown root /tmp/db2rte61-6.1.0-1.i386.rpm
    chgrp root /tmp/db2rte61-6.1.0-1.i386.rpm

3. Make sure the DB2 cd is mounted:

    mount /dev/cdrom

4. Execute crfiximg.sh:

    /tmp/crfiximg.sh

5. Follow the normal instructions for installing DB2 as if /tmp/fixdb2
were the mountpoint of your CD.

    cd /tmp/fixdb2
    ./db2setup



Special Instructions
--------------------

If crfiximg.sh cannot detect your CD's mountpoint, you can override
this with the -c parameter:

    /tmp/crfiximg.sh -c /cdrom

If /tmp doesn't have enough space for the patched rpm, you can put it
somewhere else, and specify its location with -r:

    /tmp/crfiximg.sh -r /bigDisk/db2rte61-6.1.0-1.i386.rpm

If /tmp doesn't have enough space for the linked CD image, you can put
it somewhere else, and specify its location with -d:

    /tmp/crfiximg.sh -r /bigDisk/fixdb2
