I tried this script and I get two errors:

1) can't create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu//online: nonexistent directory
2) sleep: invalid number '.0026736'


For 1) the cpu number is not being appended. if I give a particular
cpu in the script then hotplug in/out works fine.
For 2) a constant msleep 10 works.

Is it OK for me to modify the script to hotplug in/off a randomly chosed core ?
