I've no idea why that would be stupid. If I were booting a computer and intended to use some USB peripherals, I may very well do the plugging prior to boot finishing. Whilst I go off and make a cup of tea, because the boot STILL takes too long. What sounds stupid to me is having a brittle system that can actually be disrupted by plugging in a USB stick whilst it's booting! Note that I don't necessarily need the hotplugged USB stick to be available *to the system* during boot - perhaps the plumbing that mounts it hasn't been started up yet. (And hopefully that GDM3 bug that mounted disks as the Debian-gdm3 has gone now.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
