I should have been clearer.  I'm trying to create a VICE partition for
the server's first AFS volume.  Is that the right terminology?  I'm
following the ibm quick beginnings document's step for this:

Derek, Nickolai, I tried both your suggestions (mkdir /vicepa and
putting an empty AlwaysAttach file in there) but it fails either way
with "partition /vicepa does not exist on the server":

[localhost:/usr/afs] root# touch /vicepa/AlwaysAttach
[localhost:/usr/afs] root# ls -ld /vicepa
drwxr-xr-x  3 root  admin  58 Apr 27 17:24 /vicepa
[localhost:/usr/afs/bin] root# ls -l /vicepa/
total 0
-rw-r--r--  1 root  admin  0 Apr 27 17:24 AlwaysAttach
[localhost:/usr/afs] root# cd bin; ./vos create mac.linux.bogus /vicepa root.afs -cell delackner.org -noauth
vos : partition /vicepa does not exist on the server
