Hi,

I have created a virtual system via xen and would like to strip some
unrequired virtual hardware from it.

Example: my virtual Windows system shows me a scsi PCI device (as
unknown device). I would like to get rid of it - I am only using IDE in
the virtual system.

How can I hide specific hardware from the virtual system?

Cheers,

Emre

P.S.: as far as I understand specifying "hide=<pci_id>" during boot of
the host system is only for hiding physical hardware from the *host*, so
it can be directly attached to a virtual system ... so "hide" is not
what I´m looking for (I guess)
