[pve-devel] [PATCH] add virtio-scsi controller and disks

[Alexandre DERUMIER]

I think it can be ok.

I don't think user want to mix lsi and virtio-scsi, so a global flag (for the vm) seem more easy to manage.

I'll make a patch this week.

Thanks

Alexandre

I guess we need to use a global flag instead, like: 

scsihw: [lsi,virtio] 

Do you think that would work?
