yes. I ran debian stable/woody (and now debian stable-to-be/sarge) on an

I don't remember how I built 1.2.3 for 2.4.18 on stable. It was a while
ago, and one of the reasons I upgraded this box to sarge early was that I
couldn't reproduce it.

I built 1.2.11 for 2.4.24-sparc64 by getting the kernel-image-sparc source
package, unpacking openafs-modules-source into /usr/src/modules, unpacking
kernel-image-sparc, and the correct sequence of 'make-kpkg --arch sparc64'
commands. I don't remember all the details right now.

2.4.27 seems like it will be easier to deal with, since it actually
includes an i386-style kernel-headers package:

install kernel-headers-2.4.27-1-sparc64
unpack openafs-modules-source wherever you want it.
<cd to the top of openafs-modules-source>
make -f debian/rules KVERS=2.4.27-1-sparc64 \  
   KSRC=/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.27-1-sparc64 kdist_image

I just built a module in this way, and it looks like it's not going to load

It has some references that I don't think will resolve:
                 U 
                 U 
                 U 
                 U current

I'll look at this some more and post a followup.

neither what? If you are running sarge or unstable, then you should not use
egcs. If you are running stable, where did you get the 2.4.27 kernel?
