That is what I was afraid of but expected.
I can modify the code but I just wanted to know if this is the only way and there is no easier way (some trick).
Thanks for the -2 hint.
I will report the outcome when I get it done.

You'll need to hack the mouse and kbd drivers so they
return a file descriptor when the device is present, but
return -2 (rather than -1) when not. The -2 return allows the
srvmain.c code to ignore the driver not present return.
