    sed -e 's/\([0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]\.[0-9]\).*/\1/'

    will keep the numbers.

    In a script you’re likely going to pipe the command that returns you the string to sed, like

    #!/bin/sh
echo "00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH VirtualBox Graphics Adapter" | sed -e 's/\([0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]\.[0-9]\).*/\1/'

    which gives

    00:02.0
