Can't speak for all distros, but on mine (SuSE) the cold/hotplug stuff isn't 
init'd until after the mounting of the system partitions. So, even if you 
decided to ignore the previous poster (who's absolutely right), you'd 
probably have to hack the hell out of the start up scripts so that the USB/FW 
drive was available at the time of mounting.
