<SNIP>
Please think about NOT adding/removing disks but instead using resized volumes.
Have a look at my Logical Volume Manager (LVM) at <http://www.linux-kongress.de/nachlese98.html> and <ftp://ftp.msede.com/pub/linux/lvm>.
The LVM does the job of resizing volumes at run time without beeing stuck to partition limitations.
