Dear OpenAFS developers,

I need to be able to connect my laptop to the AFS infrastructure. The laptop runs Debian/testing with vanilla Linux 2.6.7 kernel. I found that the AFS support in the kernel is premature, so I tried to install the openafs-modules, found that it will not work, read the list, downloaded latest daily snapshot from CVS and started playing.

I was not able to make it work (thus I'm writing you :) ) - when I insmod the libafs module, dmesg says:

libafs: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.
libafs: Unknown symbol sys_call_table
libafs: Unknown symbol sys_call_table
Failed to find address of sys_call_table

Following the recomendations on the list, I added 

EXPORT_SYMBOL(sys_call_table);

into 

/usr/src/linux-2.6.7/arch/um/sys-i386/ksyms.c

Then recompiled the kernel, rebooted, recompiled the OpenAFS and - no change.
Any help or duggestion will be greatly appreciated ;-)

and thank you guys for developing the AFS.

best regards
