I have tried this, but the problem is that when you put in the new device it never even does a plug and play on it. Its like the device is not even there. > I'm not sure if this will really work without dammaging the notebook. > Most models I've seen thus far were first deactivating the power on the > modular devices as the IDE bus usually used in these notebooks is NOT > Hotplug aware. Yes, when i have done this in the past, yes it does damage the drive if it is mounted, but if it is unmounted then it is fine. So is there a way to turn off power to the modular device and then unload it and put in the new device and have it plug and play. I know in the past Dell has made some windows apps that do that for you so that you can have this capability. Does anyone know of a similar Linux App. -Cameron --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
