Hello,

Hmm... I'm not sure that's true anymore. Basically, we copy parts of the
kernel source tree to the arla build tree, to work around the problem
with non-writable source tree. What happens here is that we don't copy
enough (Makefile.my), sincle Makefile is a symlink in this case.

However, I recall successfully compiling arla with a non-writable kernel
source tree without copying it to the arla tree. You could try that.
(See attached patch.)

Also, arla-0.37 is out now, so try that instead.

And if you can mount AFS, but can't authenticate, try heimdal-0.6.3.
