Need to make another VDR-box, just for DVB-T I have one NEXUS-T FF board where the tuner is very bad. I want to use that as outputcard and then two NOVA-T's as tuners. How do I disable the use of NEXUS as tuner ?

I used this method to disable the horrible tuner on a Fujitsu-Siemens FF dvb-c card. http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2005-April/001501.html
This thread also contains some methods to do it. http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2005-August/004017.html
I haven't experienced any major problems with the if (IsPrimaryDevice()) return false; trick, but I have kept the ff-card still plugged in, since there have been reports that they tend to crash without signal. With one budget card there were a few recordings that had stopped after 5-6min of recording from the YLE-mux, but I did not have time to debug the cause. I haven't seen that problem again after I added a second budget card to the system (or at least there haven't been any reports, that's my parents' vdr-box :) )
