I just recently looked over the new 1.4 install instructions, very nice job by the way. I noticed that hotplug is used by default in the install now. I have never used hotplug but it seems interesting, if I understand correctly I can build my kernel as usual, enable the modules that I want/need make the kernel and set hotplug to run in the default runtime and have hotplug load all the modules that I need when I need them without me having to put them in /etc/modules.autoload (BTW when did /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-version replace /etc/modules.autoload...I just realized this today.)? I know that was a long sentence but I'm trying to understand hotplug and it sounds really interesting. If someone could correct me or clarify that what I think is true then I definitely have some kernel rebuilding in my near future. Thanks
