[OpenAFS] Problems with OpenAFS 1.3.79 and Kernel 2.11.5

[Björn Ruberg]

Hello,

> After /afs is unmounted and afsd -shutdown has been run? Did they work?

I tried both and it doesn't help. I am not able to kill the afs-services too. 
afsd -shutdown executes without errors, but it doesn't work.
The PC will only shutdown correctly when afs has been started and it had been 
used. It tries three times to unmount some filesystems and after that it 
shutdown.
If afs hasn't been used during the session, the shutdown process locks at some 
point and I can only reset.

I there is a good chance that it helps me, I would.
If there is no other way. Perhaps downgrading to another version that worked?

But what is the correct filename?

Yes, I run the Gentoo-Sources. I always found them very good and I don't want 
to switch to vanilla if I can avoid it.
I can take out some of the patches out of the Gentoo-Sources, when I know, 
which might be problematic.

Thanks for you help, Mike and Derrick.
