- IDE warm-plug HOWTO
- ===================
- To warm-plug devices on a port 'idex':
- # echo -n "1" > /sys/class/ide_port/idex/delete_devices
- unplug old device(s) and plug new device(s)
- # echo -n "1" > /sys/class/ide_port/idex/scan
- done
- NOTE: please make sure that partitions are unmounted and that there are
- no other active references to devices before doing "delete_devices" step,
- also do not attempt "scan" step on devices currently in use -- otherwise
- results may be unpredictable and lead to data loss if you're unlucky
