Bug Description
Binary package hint: hw-detect
If a KVM is guest is started with virtio block devices the installer detects Serial ATA Raid devices. Booting the guest with the *same* files but using ide block devices doesn't show this message.
The output of the command "dmraid -c -s" run in the guest during installation is different:
For a guest with a virtio block device:
# dmraid -c -s
no block devices found
For a guest with an ide block device:
# dmraid -c -s
no RAID disks

dmraid's lib/device/scan.c needs a simple update, attached.
hw-detect could perhaps do with not matching human-readable output from dmraid ...
