Well, I have only one listed.
I had wiped my previous installation clean (rm -rf /usr/afs/*; rm -rf
/usr/vice/*; modprobe -r <...>; /etc/init.d/afs stop) and installed
again (just to make sure things were starting from a blank state).
Could there be something left over in the /var tree that the new afs
process is reading and mistakenly concluding that there is one "new"
cell and an "old" cell ?
