Public bug reported: I'm trying to install Precise on a QEMU VM using the virtio-scsi driver. The guest kernel driver, module virtio-scsi, doesn't seem to be included, so my guest has no hard drives. I think this should be packaged in the virtio-modules udeb. The LTS kernel package has the module, so once Precise installs it should work fine.
