I have a Thinkpad T21 with a bay that can hold a floppy, a cd drive,
or even a battery.  Is there any way I can swap devices, either
hot or when suspended?  (Win2K can manage the former, if you tell
it politely to turn off the device.)  I'm running 1.5.1, which I know
has some better support for devices appearing and disappearing.
