The hang after the initialization error is perfectly normal ;-)

I can't tell you exactly what's wrong because the initialization could 
have been gone wrong at almost any point (as far as I remember 22 is 
"invalid argument", but I'm not sure). Is your client environment 
sane?? Which means: network, cache dir ... etc.
When that's all correctly set up, do the start of afsd with -debug 
-verbose. From that output you'll see exactly which syscall goes wrong.
