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.

Heinz
