When switching from IDE to virtio, you need to first build a new initrd
in the guest with e.g.:

  $> mkinitrd --with virtio_pci --with virtio_blk -f 
/boot/initrd-$(kernelversion) $(kernelversion)

You only need to do this once. After that, if a new kernel is installed
while you're booted off a virtio disk, then mkinitrd will include the
modules automatically.

Cheers,
Mark.
