Comment 4 for bug 189538

Antony,

nothings really lost yet. In your case I would suggest to get the free
db2-express-c package directly from IBM and install it using the
commandline tool "db2_install" instead of the graphical "db2setup". This
will only copy the files to /opt/ibm/db2/V9.5 without changing any
instance-settings. You should then be able to go on with my method.

regards,

Norbert
