Dear all,   Today I tried to install DB2 7.2 on my Redhat 7.1. I tried several versions downloaded from the web. There are lots of RPMs to be installed. A script, db2_setup, is in charge of that. But at one time, I forgot to run the script db2_deinstall before I tried the next version. After the new version overwrote the previous one, the db2_deinstall of the new one can't uninstall the previous installed DB2! I have to remove the directory, /usr/IBMDB2, manually by rm -rf. Then I started the new db2setup. But it doesn't work! Even if I overwrote the new one with the previous one, I can't install DB2 any more!   Anyone can help me! Thanks a lot in advance!
