[OpenAFS] OAFS 1.0.4a SMP with a stock RedHat 2.4.3-12smp kernel ?

[Vladimir Kondratiev]

I (and several other guys I know) tried to manage it, but not succeeded. 
OAFS always froze the (SMP) host with RedHat kernel. I suggest you to use 
kernel from net. Kernel compilation is straightforward, just several hours 
of compilation. 
I use, for closest to RedHat kernel results, RedHat's kernel config.
