[Soekris] Hot insert CF card?

[Erik Cummings]

I have a bunch of 4511 boards (BIOS 1.28) that I want to install and  
build.

I have configured DHCP, PXE, SystemImager, and autoinstall scripts to  
do all the wonderful things I need done - it works great.

HOWEVER:
	- With a CF card inserted, even if it's brand new and has no boot  
partition, the BIOS will not bypass CF and netboot (boot order is CF  
first, THEN net).

	- I am trying not to change the boot order, and trying not to have to  
serial console in.  I'd love to be able to take these as they arrive,  
insert CF cards, plug them into my flash-builder network, they net- 
boot and away things go - with the NEXT boot being from CF since it  
has a valid boot partition.

The only solution I can seem to come up with is hot-inserting the CF -  
but that doesn't work - or at least i don't know how to make it work.

Is it possible to get Linux (2.6 kernel) to recognize a CF that was  
inserted AFTER the BIOS boot process on a 4511 ?
