Hmm, this is interesting by default the oemboot linuxrc checks
for hda1 and sda1 which should cover IDE and ATA/SCSI disks. You can do the
following:

     edit /usr/share/kiwi/image/oemboot/suse-linuxrc

and change 

 systemException \
    "Couldn't find any disk device... abort" \
 "reboot"

to

 systemException \
    "Couldn't find any disk device... abort" \
 "shell"

you will get a shell after rebuild of the image in case of
this disk error. Within the shell environment please check whether
you can find a disk (hwinfo --disk) or if you can find it when the
scsi drivers are loaded.

I'm wondering why there are no scsi drivers loaded. that happens
automatically as soon as the device is registered on the bus, so at least
the controller driver should be loaded _if installed_

Could you check

Thanks
