1. Copy the kernel initialization file afs.sm to the local /var/sysgen/system directory, and the kernel master file afs to the local /var/sysgen/master.d directory.

   # cp -p  bin/afs.sm  /var/sysgen/system
   
   # cp -p  bin/afs  /var/sysgen/master.d

1. Copy the appropriate AFS kernel library file to the local file /var/sysgen/boot/afs.a; the IPxx portion of the library file name must match the value previously returned by the uname -m command. Also choose the file appropriate to whether the machine's kernel supports NFS server functionality (NFS must be supported for the machine to act as an NFS/AFS Translator). Single- and multiprocessor machines use the same library file.

If the machine's kernel supports NFS server functionality:

   # cp -p   bin/libafs.IPxx.a   /var/sysgen/boot/afs.a   

If the machine's kernel does not support NFS server functionality:

   # cp -p  bin/libafs.IPxx.nonfs.a  /var/sysgen/boot/afs.a

1. Issue the chkconfig command to deactivate the afsml configuration variable.

   # /etc/chkconfig -f afsml off   

If the machine is to function as an NFS/AFS Translator and the kernel supports NFS server functionality, activate the afsxnfs variable.

   # /etc/chkconfig -f afsxnfs on

1. Copy the existing kernel file, /unix, to a safe location. Compile the new kernel, which is created in the file /unix.install. It overwrites the existing /unix file when the machine reboots in the next step.

   # cp /unix /unix_noafs
   
   # autoconfig

1. Reboot the machine to start using the new kernel, and login again as the superuser root.

   # cd /
         
   # shutdown -i6 -g0 -y
   
   login: root
   Password: root_password
