Things are in place, and so it's now time to send out the official 'this is
the step by step way to do it' notes of how to install openafs on a 7x
release.  I am saying 7x, and not Fermi Linux 7x because these instructions
will work for all of the RedHat 7x releases, and all of the Fermi Linux 7x
releases.  This also works on the Mandrake 8x releases.

If you already have some form of AFS installed and it's working properly for
you, then you have no need to upgrade.  These instructions are for those who
do not have AFS currently installed, and would like it installed.

1 - Find out what kernel you are currently using.
  /bin/uname -r
Use just the number part (if you have something like 2.4.9-31smp, don't worry
about the smp).  Also, for step 3, to get the kernel name, drop the periods,
and change the - to a period.  So 2.4.9-31 would be 249.31

2 - FTP to fermi's openafs area, for 7x releases
  ftp://linux.fnal.gov/linux/contrib/openafs/7x/

3 - Get the following rpm's.
  openafs-1.2.3-FL711.<X>.i386.rpm
  openafs-client-1.2.3-FL711.<X>.i386.rpm
  openafs-kernel-1.2.3-<dist><kernel>.<X>.i386.rpm
Substitute <X> with the highest number you see there.  Substitue <kernel> with
results from step 1.  Substitute <dist> with what distribution you got your
kernel from - FL=Fermi Linux, RH=RedHat MD=Mandrake.
So for the vast majority of people running Fermi Linux, you would get
  openafs-1.2.3-FL711.2.i386.rpm
  openafs-client-1.2.3-FL711.2.i386.rpm
  openafs-kernel-1.2.3-FL249.31.2.i386.rpm

4 - End FTP session

*Do the following steps as root*
5 - Make sure you don't have afs-fermi installed
  rpm -q afs-fermi

5a - If you do have afs-fermi installed, remove it.
  rpm -e afs-fermi

6 - Install the openafs rpm's
  rpm -Uvh openafs*

7 - Start service.
7a - If you are sure you didn't have AFS running when you started
  /etc/init.d/afs start
7b - If you had to remove afs-fermi, or might have had openafs-fermi installed
  /sbin/reboot
