When Red Hat 7.1 boots, it checks for "New Hardware". I have a laptop that has two modular bays. The hard drive consumes one bay. Before I boot, I either put in the CDROM or floppy drive in the 2nd bay. If I want to switch devices, I currently have to halt the system, swap the devices, and reboot. Is there a way to switch the modular devices once Red Hat has booted, without halting? I am buying a second hard drive and would like to be able to swap out the current device (floppy or CDROM), put in any other modular device (e.g. the new hard drive), and use it (e.g. mount it and use it). Is this possible?
Thanks for any replies in advance. -Jim Wartnick _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
