I think error 2 is ENOENT which means your VolumeInfo file isn't there.
Could you try mounting afs to /afs and use disk cache??  .... and sweep 
that directory before. So it would be just like the first time starting 
the client.
What I expect is the client creating the needed files.

I still don't know for sure why the client stops there.

Just another question... you do have clients working in that cell, 
don't you??
