-IDE warm-plug HOWTO
-===================
-
-To warm-plug devices on a port 'idex'::
-
- # echo -n "1" > /sys/class/ide_port/idex/delete_devices
-
-unplug old device(s) and plug new device(s)::
-
- # echo -n "1" > /sys/class/ide_port/idex/scan
-
-done
-
-NOTE: please make sure that partitions are unmounted and that there are
-no other active references to devices before doing "delete_devices" step,
-also do not attempt "scan" step on devices currently in use -- otherwise
-results may be unpredictable and lead to data loss if you're unlucky
