Hi,

For the record, lest anyone burns his laptop:

With this kernel tree, ata_piix warmplug works perfectly with ICH6 on

At long last, I can now switch between the UltraBay DVD drive and
UltraBay HDD without rebooting!

On this machine the command for disabling the port is
# echo 1 > /sys/class/scsi_device/1\:0\:0\:0/device/delete

On ThinkPads, before pulling out the drive you also need to run
# echo eject >  /proc/acpi/ibm/bay
to electrically shut down the UltraBay PATA port. This interface is
provided by the ibm-acpi module.
