It came up very recently, but checking the archives I see it's actually not quite so recent that it's been answered. You can search the archives for pciback like this : http://lists.xensource.com/archives/cgi-bin/namazu.cgi?query=pciback&submit=Search%21&idxname=xen-users&max=100&result=normal&sort=date%3Alate It's also in the Xen handbook http://bits.xensource.com/Xen/docs/user.pdf.In summary - you need to hide the device from your Dom0 by adding pciback.hide to your boot config. This example is from one of my servers where I've hidden an ethenet card and tv tuner : title Xen 3.2-1-amd64 / Debian 2.6.18-6-xen-amd64 - Ext Eth hidden root (hd0,0) kernel /xen-3.2-1-amd64.gz dom0_mem=512Mmodule /vmlinuz-2.6.18-6-xen-amd64 root=/dev/sda3 ro console=tty0 pciback.hide=(01:07.0)(01:06.0)module /initrd.img-2.6.18-6-xen-amd64 Then in your guest config, you specify the device to be made available to the guest : pci=['01:07.0'] The address to use is found with lspci and MUST be entered in exactly that format - eg 1:7:0 is not OK, 01:07:1 is OK. -- Simon Hobson Visit http://www.magpiesnestpublishing.co.uk/ for books by acclaimed author Gladys Hobson.
