5 Boot without dvd drive - ID: 1533781
Last Update: Comment added ( graham_alton )

When I boot my thinkpad my dvd-rom is removed when I
load the module lt_hotswap. For it to be detected I
have to eject then re-plug it with the computer on
(hot-swap). I'm using Gentoo GNU/Linux kernel 2.6.16
and lt_hotswap 0.3.6. My computer is a R40. Everything
else works like a charm. Thanks

I found this problem too, only after I found this bug report though,
sadly! I've patched 0.3.6 with a fix so your devices don't get
unregistered when the lths module loads. If you want to check it out I've
uploaded it here as a patch ->

Same here on my T30 with CD drive (IDE). I need to pop the eject switch
and push it back in before I can use my CD drive for the first time after
loading the module.

floppy drive.

I can confirm this...after loading the lt_hotswap module,
/dev/hdc is missing.
