usb-bot not being hot-pluggable is a consequence of the fact that we can only hotplug single devices in qemu today. usb-bot without scsi devices hooked up is useless. Plugging in usb-bot first and plugging in disks later doesn't work (well, could sort-of work when you plug them fast, but you are racing with the guest initializing the device then). With some way to first compose the whole thing (usb-bot + disks), then plug-in as whole usb-bot hotplugging would work though. cheers, Gerd
