Nice. Any special syntax needed in the domain config, or dom0 grub, beyond the 
standard pciback hide stuff? Do you need xen 3.2/Vt-d?

What's the best order to uninstall in - the reverse order of installing? That 
would make it xenhide, xenstub, xennet, xenvbd, xenenum, xenpci? Everytime I 
rip out xenhide, I have a massive hardware reconfiguration with the Add 
Hardware Wizard on the next reboot.
