I used a config setting like this: #vscsi=['/dev/st0, 0:0:0:0'] which
I guess must be LUN mode, I removed the setting and used a "xm attach
<dom>  8:0:5:0 host" which was successful and "xm scsi-list" shows the
device is attached, but nothing was detected in windows, perhaps it
needs to be there as soon as windows is booted, what is the syntax to
specify host mode in the config file?
