After udpkg -i .../virtio-modules-2.6.26-1-amd64-di*, the rest went fine (including automatic detection). With scsi or ide, everything went fine. Another problem (with scsi and virtio) was that kvm didn't like to boot from that kind of media, but that's kvm bug #497214. (And a final bit, it would be great if there would be an installation medium that would work with the curses-only interface of kvm, i.e. uses only linux text mode.)
