Here we generally:

1. build a new kernel in /usr/src/linux (note kernel sym sources are not
available for all kernels, YaST will prompt if not)
2. make bzImage modules modules_install install #look at /boot for the new
kernel
3. edit /boot/grub/menu.lst #as required
4. reboot #into new kernel
5. cd openafs-1.4.0
6. ./configure;make;make install # set configure switches for transarc
paths, etc...
7. libafs'uname -r'.ko is in /usr/vice/etc
8. mkdir /lib/modules/'uname -r'/fs/afs #if afs is deselected in make
xconfig
9. cp /usr/vice/etc/libafs'uname -r'.ko  /lib/modules/'uname
-r'/fs/afs/libafs.ko
10. cd /lib/modules/'uname -r'
11. depmod -a
12. insmod libafs;lamod|grep afs  #should say libafs and no carping

This seems to work all the time, more expert coders can probably improve on
this.

On my FC3 system:

rpm -qf /usr/include/sys/types.h
glibc-headers-2.3.6-0.fc3.1

There's another copy in the kernel sources, provided the AFS symlinks
worked correctly.  Do you have the correct kernel headers for your
running kernel?  What ./configure options did you use?
