In this page you will find the rescan script mentioned by Derek under "sbp Module". From http://www.linux1394.org/sbp2.html: "The linux 2.5 and higher kernels have support for per-device hotplugging in the scsi subsystem. No workarounds are needed for plug/unplug to work on these kernels. Currently, the SCSI subsystem in 2.4 kernels does not support per-device hotplug. In order to actually make SCSI "detect" plugged or unplugged SBP-2 devices, you must either use the procfs add-single-device, remove-single-device, or a shell script such as rescan-scsi-bus.sh." I use a 2.6 test kernel, they have much better firewire-support than 2.4. joe -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
