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.

mwharris@mwharris-glaptop:~/Downloads$ dpkg-deb --contents virtio-modules-3.11.0-18-generic-di_3.11.0-18.32~precise1_amd64.udeb | grep virtio_sci
mwharris@mwharris-glaptop:~/Downloads$

The newer Trusty installer has it though:

mwharris@mwharris-glaptop:~/Downloads$ dpkg-deb --contents virtio-modules-3.13.0-24-generic-di_3.13.0-24.46_amd64.udeb  | grep virtio_scsi
