Bill replied for the case where you're talking about an AFS file server, but I think you may be talking about an AFS client, so I'll answer that part. When you dist-upgrade the system, the OpenAFS client will continue running with the existing kernel module. All you have to do is arrange to have the kernel module for the new kernel installed before you reboot the system. By far the easiest (and the now-recommended) way to do this is to install openafs-modules-dkms and the linux-headers package for the new kernel (linux-headers-486 if you're just using the tracking kernel package). Just do that before the first upgrade and DKMS will build new kernel modules for you. -- Russ Allbery (r...@stanford.edu) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
