[OpenAFS] AFS on win4lin kernel

[Dan Pritts]

sorry for the late reply - not reading list mail regularly lately
but perhaps my feedback will help.

The Win4lin folks dont' distribute a kernel-source RPM per se.
they do give you an rpm that contains the appropraite patches, eg, 

~@wrx% rpm -qlp Kernel-Win4Lin3-RedHat9.0_2.4.20.30-01.src.rpm
Kernel-Win4Lin3-RedHat9.0_2.4.20.30.patch
Kernel-Win4Lin3-RedHat9.0_2.4.20.30.spec
mki-adapter.patch
win4lin-fix-bootloader
win4lin-fix-bootloader.pl

What you probably need to do is

 a) get a redhat 9 kernel-source RPM
 b) get the appropriate source RPM from win4lin & install it
 c) build a kernel, making sure to include support for the
    two new options that win4lin provides
 d) get the appropriate afs-kernel-source rpm & build
    modules for your newly built kernel
