Hi all,

I was trying to install the OpenAFS client on an Ubuntu 5.10/Breezy Badger laptop today, according to the directions at http://www.equivalentsystems.net/marten/ubuntuafs.php.  Specifically:

    sudo apt-get install module-assistant
    sudo module-assistant prepare openafs-modules
    sudo module-assistant auto-build openafs-modules
    sudo dpkg -i /usr/src/openafs-modules*
    sudo apt-get install openafs-client openafs-krb5 krb5-user krb4-config

Unfortunately, when I finished editing my site-specific configuration files and tried to start the client, I got:

    Starting AFS services:FATAL: Error inserting openafs (/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/fs/openafs.ko): Invalid module format

Why is my module format "invalid" if I just built it from source?  Does anyone know how to resolve this?  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
