I have an pcmcia sata card, which is detected and seems to work just fine. But it only detects the attached hard drive after i disconnect it and plug it back in. just switching the drive on and off will not help. Is there a way i can get the hard drive detected (and subsequently mounted) at boot time?
"hal-device" says after a boot for the PCMCIA card:

only after i reconnect the hard drive it also has this entry:
