"Cannot attach Virtual Machine Disk. Guest OS version is not supported."(see image)
according to docs ( http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Hotadd_pci_devices#Add_a_disk )
IDE disks are not hotpluggable so there isn't any os version that do supports this action.

So either the test described above if different than what you tried, or one of you is using a build he did not intend to.
Moving back to ON_QA to verify.

Ori - can you please supply the exact steps to reproduce so we can see if your scenario and Idan's are equivalent?
