I have a IBM thinkpad T40 which has a removable bay for ide devices like IDE cdrom/hdd/dvd. (and other stuff too like secondary battery a.s.o) In older kernels like 2.4.x I used hdparm with -U -R options to register and unregister IDE devices, but it is not working any more on new 2.6.x kernels. Also on my desktop I have a hot-pluggable IDE tray/cage where I can hot-swap HDD, CDROM, DVD, which also is not automaticaly detected. Where should I search for this feature ? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
