Hi,

I've got a notebook with a hotplugable ATAPI cdrom drive running 
Mandrake 8 with kernel 2.4.3. It works fine if it's attached at boot 
up.But it is not automatically detected if hotplugged later.

Has anybody got any advice on how to get the hotplug capability to work?

I've found http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net which sounds like it 
would do the job. Has anybody got any advice about using this approach?

System details:
  Notebook: HP Omnibook 900b
  CD drive: TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-7002B
  Mandrake: 8
  kernel: 2.4.3

Regards,
Declan
