The "make dest" will create a tree from which you can copy the files
referred to in the QuickStart instructions at the URL below.
By default it creates a directory just below the top directory. The
directory will look something like "linux_2.x_i386 ..."
QuickStart will instruct you to copy some files from CD. Instead of CD,
you'll copy them from the "linux_2.x_...." directory.
The fileserver partition can be called /'vicep? where ? equals any
character. /vicepa is a good place to start IMO. Name doesn't make any
difference but must be a partition, not a directory. (can also use /vicep??
up to ?? = mn ... I could be wrong about the mn)
/usr/vice/cache is used by the cache manager (AFS client) to cache
data/files it retrieves from AFS servers. It doesn't _have_ to be on its
own partition, but is much easier to manage if it is.
If you've got enough RAM you can cache to memory instead. I recommend
cacheing to disk, even if the partition you cache to is just 100 MB or so.
Memory cache has a history of causing instability on some platforms, so,
IMO, I wouldn't use it until the machine's up and running and you're sure
there are no other problems. I use mem cache with OpenAFS 1.2.11 and RH9
without issues, but have had problems in the past and am not sure of Fedora.
Others on the list may be able to better advise.
So, if you haven't, go ahead and "make dest" and look for the resulting
directory.
