There is no support at the current time for Tiger.   OpenAFS is a file
system and as such must load a kernel module.   If access to AFS is
on the critical path for your users, they should not install Tiger until
such time as we are able to build a version that works.   This has
proved challenging.

Be rest assured that very bright minds are working on the issues.
