This is particulary useful when using removeable hard drives - standard
drives in a removeable case - used for backup or whatever - that would
not normally be turned on at boot.
Why couldn't the kernel automatically scan for a device via the mount
command if it is not initially detected - could be a command line option.
I guess the relationship of device name to actual SCSI adress parameters
would not be known - but then how does Win95 do it.....
