libvirt users - Aug 2011 - does kvm support SATA driver?

Hi,

I encounter a problem. My virtual machine is windows 7 . I install it using
bus ide. There is not any problem until now. but when I want to attach a
disk to it(bus=scsi ) , the os can?t find the suitable SCSI driver. I
search the problem on the internet ,it seems that the windows7 don?t
support SCSI driver. So ,I want attach the disk to vm using SATA. So I want
to know that whether the kvm support SATA driver and whether the kvm support
USB 2.0?

Hope for reply. Thank in advance.

 

 

Thanks & Best Regards,

Usually, on Windows guests, you have to install the drivers before
changing the device. What I do is :
- attach another new temporary disk with SCSI,
- start Windows,
- install the drivers, 
- test the last disk is available,
- halt the guest,
- remove the temporary disk,
- start Windows.
