Again another great response - starting to find my feet and bought a few books. Also have Solaris running in my VirtualBox

However, next step is to install DB2 - mind you I am unsure on what version to use as the is not one specific for Unix (only aix) the rest are for Linux or Windows.

Any ideas?

Thanks

As you are starting out: it doesn't matter all that much. On your (presumed) level they hardly differ at all. Once you get to some specifics they start to be different and you will have to use a recent version but for your first steps it is not that important which version you use.

I hope this helps.
