[plug] Adding SCSI Devices without rebooting

[Lindsay Allen]

This is some info I saved :

To add a new device, type as root:

echo "scsi add-single-device 0 0 id 0">/proc/scsi/scsi

where id is the SCSI ID of the drive you want to appear.

To switch it off, just type:

echo "scsi remove-single-device 0 0 id 0">/proc/scsi/scsi

All this is documented in /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/scsi.c
