Comment 8 for bug 295897

Thanks for the remark. Though I just can roughly see the parallels.

Before I posted this bug report I tried for about 10h to get openafs
running. These tries included the try to follow the instructions in
README.modules. This included recompiling the kernel, which also
failed:-) Unfortunately, I did not protokoll it. As the compilation took
a long time, I will not repeat it. Sorry! Probably, I've set a flag
wrongly due to insufficient Linux knowledge. I was very happy that I ve
found the above cited for the user *semantically *simple algorithm:-)

Cheers,
L--
