Building Kernel Modules ---------------------------------------- The easiest way to get AFS modules is to install prebuilt modules. Fore example if you are running kernel 2.2.18 you might try apt-get install openafs-modules-2.2.18 If this doesn't work, then you will need to build your own modules. This means having kernel sources available. You should install a kernel sources package and untar it in /usr/src. Then, install openafs-modules-source. apt-get install openafs-modules-source Next, unpack openafs-modules-source cd /usr/src tar xzf openafs.tar.gz Now, change into your kernel source tree. You should then create a .config file; the easiest way to do this is to run make menuconfig or to copy in a kernel configuration from the same version of the kernel. Debian kernel packages store a copy of their kernel configuration in /boot/config.version_number. Finally build the modules make-kpkg configure make-kpkg modules_image You may need to use the --append_to_version switch to add version suffixes like -686 if your modules install into /lib/modules/version-686. Ignore any errors about genchanges.sh failing. An openafs-modules deb should be created. Use dpkg -i to install this version.
