is there a way to rescan for devices after bootup? like if i hot-plugged a scsi drive into the machine after it was already running? how can i re-detect the hardware?
also, what if it detects a drive as sda, and i want it to be sdb? is there a way i can tell it what i want to be sda, sda etc? without actually having to move the drives around? im having an issuse where the bios see's the drive i want as sda or the boot drive, but when gentoo boots up the drive is actually sde and i get kernel panics cause its looking for something on a different drive. please advise Nick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
