Hi,
thanks to the people who answered my question:
-Dave Wolinski <wolinski_at_umich.edu>
-Jim.Zelenka_at_cs.cmu.edu
-Shirley Chrisman <Shirley.Chrisman_at_asu.edu>

The result is that Transarc is not supporting DU 3.2C (why?).
In any case I found somebody who installed (gomezel_at_trieste.infn.it) AFS
3.4A on DU 3.2C claiming that it's working, we tried to install it and we
found:

- AFS is incompatible with ADVFS: the cache area cannot be on a ADVFS
  partition (the machine crashes during installation while trying to create
  the cache area);
- AFS was installed without problems on a DEC 3000/300 with /usr being on
  a UFS partition and / being on a ADVFS partition, and seemed to work BUT
  the machine crashes whenever I try to remove a file from a remote cell.
  The same doesn't happen on a machine with 3.2A.
