I recall something about you have to make sure you
load the "nfssrv" driver before afs, make sure your afs startup 
script (/etc/init.d/afs etc...) looks something like:

#
# Load kernel extensions
#

# nfssrv has to be loaded first
if [ -f /kernel/misc/nfssrv ]; then
        echo "Loading NFS server kernel extensions"
        modload /kernel/misc/nfssrv
else
        echo "/kernel/misc/nfssrv does not exist. Skipping AFS startup."
        exit 1
fi

if [ -f /kernel/fs/afs ]; then
        echo "Loading AFS kernel extensions"
        modload /kernel/fs/afs
else
        echo "/kernel/fs/afs does not exist. Skipping AFS startup."
        exit 1
fi


or you could load this in the /etc/system file under the
forceload section:

* forceload:
*
*       Cause these modules to be loaded at boot time, (just before mounting
*       the root filesystem) rather than at first reference. Note that
*       forceload expects a filename which includes the directory. Also
*       note that loading a module does not necessarily imply that it will
*       be installed.
*
*       Example:
*               forceload: drv/foo
forceload: misc/nfssrv


my system did not panic but the modload /kernel/fs/afs blew up every time.
