Hmm. I have servers using the SuperMicro P8SCT motherboard, which supports hot-pluggable SATA drives.
In Gentoo they show as being SCSI, fine, no problem with that. If I hotplug a drive into the chassis--it powers up, but Gentoo doesn't see it until reboot. Has anyone else used hotpluggable SATA drives in Gentoo 2006.0? Is there some mysterious package I need to emerge for this to work right? Output of dmesg follows.
