The next step is to look in the "config.log" file in the source directory.
Near the end of it, it should tell you what went wrong. If you post an
excerpt of that here, it will provide us more information.
Also, as an alternative to OpenAFS, you could look into arla
(http://www.stacken.kth.se/project/arla/).
If you're running a recent 2.4 (>2.4.18) kernel or a 2.6 kernel, I think
you'll need to download one of the 0.36 prerelease snapshots.
