I was actually thinking that linux-scsi would be the more appropriate list for discussing the presentation of scsi bay information.

It might be worth also including a link to the original message: http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m9432330418980&w=2 and to let the udev people know that we already have a /sys/bus/pci/slots, but it's only populated for slots which have a hotplug driver currently. I was assuming that knowledge on the part of linux-pci folks, but the udev people might not know about it. -- Intel are signing my paycheques ... these opinions are still mine "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours.
