Folks,

	A, hopefully, quick question.  I have GEOM running with a pair of SATA 
drives on an ICH6R intel controller.  If I pull a drive while running 
and then reinsert it into the bay the GEOM mirror does not 
automatically rebuild.  I have to run 'atacontrol reinit ata3' to 
reinitialize the drive before GEOM recognizes the provider and begins 
the rebuild.  The drive after being re-inserted does not show up in 
'atacontrol list' nor do I see any console messages that it was 
detected on insert.

	Is this a general problem?  Is 'atacontrol reinit' required?  Or is 
this a failing in the driver for the ICH6 controller?



Thanks,



--Randy
