Ok, looks good too. It would be interesting to convert the media-bay stuff to use hotplug now too :) But that mean some serious work on swim3 and ide-pmac to make them more hotplug friendly... Not sure it's worth the pain. The current mecanism actually works, even if it's not pretty, and mediabay-based machines are a thing of the past.
