With regards to your message at 09:49 AM 4/19/02, bo. Where you stated:

Danilo,

If I have a h/w support for IDE hot swap then what do you recommand for
the same as you suggested for scsi below?

The issue seems to be one of "while the hardware supports replacing drives 
and bus rescans, the Linux IDE driver may not"

Or am I completely missing the point here???


With our best regards,
