in -[no]uservolfirst is the "no" part an option, so this is wrong. Maybe the [
and ] signs are confusing the initscript.

As far as I can see, your config is rather basic, because your options 
put there
are all default, so it is best to leave the afpd.conf totally empty. Put your
shares in the AppleVolumes.default and start atalk.

Restore your original netatalk.conf, it works well, when you modify your
afpd.conf.

Starting Appletalk is always slow, because during start it queries the network
for addresses and zonenames and tries to put the server in an existing 
zone. If
no zone is found, it starts in a default zone. So slow during start is normal.

If you don't like this, you can modify in netatalk.conf:

ATALK_BGROUND=yes

in this case the startup disappears to the background. It's not starting atalk
faster, but during system boot, the server continues starting other processes,
instead of waiting for atalk to finish.

Hope this helps.
