Hi Claudio,

first of all, I would like to thank  2 people - Matt Elliott and Derrick Brashear - who  gave me a workaround  for the kernel panic problem: I have removed the memcache flag in the afsd.options file, as they suggested to me,  and now I can unmount end re-mount the afs volume without any kernel panic. I will use this workaround waiting for the bug's fix. 

Secondly, I'd like to spend 2 words about your software: I appreciate much it because  such a useful user-interface was missing ( or better, not directly integrated ) in the OpenAFS package, so that I was using the Arla implementation of the AFS Client. When I discovered your utility I decided to move to OpenAFS. Now I can use it without any problem. Thank you.

Hi Enzo,
yes i use it on my MacBook Pro, and work well. For start/stop log/unlog
AFSCommander work as bridge to unix script. I have hardcoded the afs
startup script in app with cocoa class for launch unix process.
Try to download the last update of it i made some fix. Now it work well...
i hope.. Thank for bug reporting.

for your kernel panic i think that it is to associate with problem that
you have also with afs standard script. For me AFSCommander work well. In
September i'll code klog/aklog and unlog directly with afs api, after that
i'll try to mount afs and loading kernel extension by osx api. It's no
difficult but i don't have much time for it:-(.

Anyway i think that you must suppliy more information about your machine
state and configuration for your afs problem. How i have wrote in last
mail, i think there is some little but in kernel extension. The error that
i had accour sistematicaly. I'll try to indagate more on this issue.

For AFSCommander bug repory you can write me directly.
Thanks for reporting...

Hi Claudio,

I have also used your preference pane but I have obtained immediately
the same kernel panic. Have you tested your software on an intel CPU?

Hi Enzo,
during development work of my afs preference pane, i started and
stoped
afs many time(for testing, the preference let do it). i didn't get any
kernel panic on 10.4.x but i have seen that after three or four afs
start/stop i can't get anymore to unmount afs(1.4.x and 1.5.x). I
have had
to restart osx. I thought tha probably was a bug on my application,
but i
have seen that it occour also calling afs script by and via terminal.
I think it can be a little bug on afs kernel extension...

Hi,

I have installed OpenAFS 1.5.2 on my MacBook Pro running MacOS X
10.4.10. At the startup the 'afs' volume is correctly mounted on my
desktop, but if I use  the script /Library/StartupItems/OpenAFS/
OpenAFS (start/stop) first  to unmount it and then to re-mount it ,
so I get a kernel panic. Below the related information contained  in
the panic.log file:
