Your kernel version shouldn't matter.

DB/2 installs vary in success.  I've had some luck installing a release
this past spring on Red Hat, though I found none of the individual
documentation sources were sufficient to make this happen.  I posted
results to a number of newsgroups, you might try a Deja search for
details.

Note that DB/2's default installation directory is something horribly
broken like /bin/db2 or /usr/db2, and that it comes in RPM only, last I
checked.
