I want to hotplug my ide disk so i can put it on my computer while the
computer's running.
Then just automatically mount ( or at least detected for mounted manually
later ) like usb storage.
As a former windows user, I can easlly do it on m$win by plugging the drive
then 'scan for harddware changes'
on the system control panel.

You can plug a raw drive directly into a running system? I don't believe you. As Douglas says, IDE doesn't support hot-swapping.

How to do with debian ? Any idea ?

With USB or Firewire enclosures.  Piece of cake.
