OpenSUSE 12.1 fails to recognize drives on MS Virtual PC 2007 during
installation. The "Probe hard disks" check on "System Probing" installation
screen responds with "No hard disks were found for the installation. Please
check your hardware!" error. Also, there are no drives shown on Yast2
partitioning screens and cannot be added by editing the configuration or by
rescanning the system. 
Kernel Messages show "ata1.01 failed to INDENTIFY (device reports invalid type,
err_mask=0x0)". Earlier versions of OpenSUSE would recognize the drive type as
"Virtual_HD".

2.

Unable to proceed with installation without drives being recognized

Expected Results:
