client: install the new afsd and kernel modules using whatever package
system you use or by putting the files into the locations of the old ones.
reboot. 

server: install the new binaries using whatever package system you use, or
by installing them where the existing ones are (possibly /usr/afs/bin,
possibly not). bos restart (servername) -all -bosserver

you'll have an outage while the fileservers reattach volumes, which
basically takes an amount of time determined by how much you have. For a
small fileserver you won't notice.

it should "just work"
