StorageStoragePosted May 20, 2004 11:12 UTC (Thu) by yem (guest, #1138)Parent article: Kernel release status Hey when did IEEE1394 hotswapping start working? This is great! Plug or unplug my external hard drive and the SCSI device appears virtualling instantly - no need to run rescan-scsi-bus.sh. Would be nice to have this propagated back to 2.4.x if possible for those unable to upgrade. Also, is there a definitive source that tracks the status of SATA support in Linux? It seems to be getting better and better but I still hear of people having trouble, especially at install time. PATA will die out before long (witness the HP servers that now only offer SATA or SCSI) and linux support needs to be rock solid - not "mostly ok". * very pleased with 2.6.6 *

Jeff Garzik posts status reports every couple of weeks on linux-kernel. Subscribe, or browse the archives - it's not hard to find them by subject line. See for example http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0405.1/0425.html.
