Hello,

AFAIK it is possible to attach/detach an ata channel with atacontrol on
-CURRENT. I am looking for a way to do this on -STABLE, too. Particularly
I want to hot swap an ATA disk w/ an appropriate IDE drive bay. No RAID
is involved at the moment.

Currently the whole machine is to be shut down, when the disks will be
swapped. Of course I would prefer something like

  spin down - detach - swap - attach - spin up

Any ideas?
