[OpenAFS] first time install - please help

[Jeremy Stribling]

Hi Helmut,

The install_afs script was designed specifically to work with the 
OpenAFS precompiled RPMs for Red Hat Linux.  If these RPMs don't work 
for your machine, the install_afs script probably won't either, because 
like you said the files are in the wrong places.  If you wanted to spend 
some time on it, you could probably look through the install_afs script 
and change all the references to directories to ones that fit your 
system.  Please let me know if you have any more questions - I'm the one 
who wrote that script.  Thanks,

Jeremy
