Very likely that you can... I don't have a dell myself, but when I plugin new hardware on hot-swap interfaces all I need is loading the correct modules, and maybe a 'scsiadd -s' Just try it and see... hardware-wise it should work, just make sure you unmount all devices you are going to be swapping, maybe even unload the modules to be nice :) -- Mark Janssen -- maniac(at)maniac.nl -- GnuPG Key Id: 357D2178 Unix / Linux, Open-Source and Internet Consultant @ SyConOS IT Maniac.nl Unix-God.Net|Org MarkJanssen.org|nl SyConOS.com|nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
