Correction to this post, I was using coda-6.0.2, found 6.0.3, corrected
problem with the version error. but still won't run. Obviously I'm missing
something.

Hello,

I'm tr\ying to install Coda here, and having a bitch of a time. First, I
downloaded and installed in this order:

- lwp
- rpc2
- rvm
-coda

No problems configuring, or installing.

Next I ran:

venus-setup testserver.coda.cs.cmu.edu 40000
insmod coda
lsmod coda

So far, no problems. When I tried to run venus, I got this:

    venus &

Also I had to modify the worker.cc source to add a break after the
CIOC_KERNEL_VERSION case statement 2 to get venus to even attempt to load. I
have Coda support in the 2.4.24 config file.

I'm running Slackware 9.0, with kernel 2.4.24.

I'm following the instructions found here:

Any help is appreciated,

Bobby
