I was able to compile OpenAFS by commenting out the 'venus' directory and
its dependencies, as well as chaning the variable mentioned in src/README
from LINUX_VERSION to LINUX_VERS (i.e.
make SYS_NAME="i386_linux24" LINUX_VERSION="2.4.0-test11"
This compilation was made with the patches by Chas Williams available at
ftp://ftp.cmf.nrl.navy.mil/pub/chas/linux-openafs/symlink-fix.diff
This compilation produced an SMP kernel module that insmod'd right into
my server without a crash. It can be removed from memory as well. I
intend to startup a cell soon to truly test this system, but I consider
this a succss.
(info: gcc 2.95-2 under Mandrake 7.2, Linux kernel 2.4.0-test11)
