Regarding MinePeon with USB miners:

Is there any limit of USB devices that it will auto-detect (other than the 127 standard USB limit)?

When removing or adding new USB miners do you need to do anything over than reboot?  (ie will it automatically detect that devices were added or removed and start using all available devices)

What USB hubs are you using with the Raspberry Pi to plug so many USB block erupters or any other ASIC miner?
I tried the Anker 3.0 USB - 10 port what looks awesome, fits perfect & are good quality but nobody ever got them running with the Raspberry and Minepeon - the internet & this board is full of it. This hubs are working pretty on Ubuntu but not with minepeon -> it crashes with errors after booting and restart.

The only working hub I have is the D-Lin 7 Port (stacking the hubs plus add a 120mm fan) but as this has 2 permanent USB ports for loading so it`s again not perfect as only 5 could be used for the USB block erupters or any other bigger farm on USB.
