Could be.  I've played with the way KVM/QEMU emulates the USB drive.  It
has four "types" it can present, IDE, SCSI, USB or VirtIO.  SCSI seems
to work fine on an emulated sym(4) target.

The VM itself is not booting off of the USB drive, it is booting off of
its own drive.  I'm attaching the USB disk as a secondary drive, so
there's no "drivers" being loaded off of it at boot time.  Is this what
you were hinting at?
