Just like you need to add references to a Visual Studio project in order 
for it to build, you need to specify references on the command line when 
you build with gmcs.  For example, to reference the System.Data 
assembly, you'd do something like

gmcs -r:System.Data helloDB2.cs

You probably have other references you'll need to add, too?  If you look 
at the references in your Visual Studio project, it should give you a 
clue.  It might be easier to just try opening your Visual Studio 
solution in MonoDevelop and build from there.

Best,
