I see using USB keys with LTSP 4.1, following the localdev 
documentation, works very nicely.  I am using scripts to mount the drive 
via samba when a user logs in (no automounter).   The only drawback is 
that if the usb key is not connected when the station boots, it will 
never be seen.  I am presuming the only chance to load the usb modules 
and create the /dev node is happening at boot.  Does anyone know of a 
way where the usb key can be attached to and removed from a running 
station and have everything show up correctly--much like using any other 
kind of removeable media?  Anyone working on this?

Base system is a Mandrake 10.1, LTSP 4.1, 2.6 kernel.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Marc DeTrano
Gridshield, S.A.
