This is intentional. netboot is for booting from _network_. On the
network you got a distribution mirror, otherwise you have problems
installing Debian anyway.

Hello Bastian,
In fact the VM is actually booting from network, and has access to a
distribution mirror (copy of DVD-1 of Debian Buster 10.1), but the
debian-installer can't detect VM disk to be partitionned… I don't know
very well debian-installer internals, should it downloads a .deb or
.udeb for disk modules to be able to detect them ? I saw in previous
Debian versions some « virtio-modules » like :
virtio-modules-4.9.0-11-amd64-di, containing virtio_blk module, but it
doesn't exist in Buster, how the installer is supposed to get it ?
With regards,
Fred.
