1.boot with following command to install guest(guest image,gust install iso,virtio-win driver iso all under one virtio-scsi-pci)
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm   \
-device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0 \
-drive file=win7-64-bug.raw,if=none,cache=none,media=disk,format=raw,id=drive-ide0-0-1 -device scsi-hd,bus=scsi0.0,id=ide1,drive=drive-ide0-0-1 \

-enable-kvm \
-netdev tap,id=hostnet0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=net0,mac=ff:fe:0e:70:e2:F6,bus=pci.0 \

Actual results:
there is no vrito-win cdrom when try to load scsi driver from virtio-win iso,shown as the attachment.

Expected results:
guest can detect the virtio-win cdrom and scsi driver can loaded correctly

I think you should load the virtio-scsi driver from floppy or ide virtio-win cdrom first, then the scsi-cd cdrom can be detected correctly.

yes,I can load driver with floppy/ide-cdrom,but this scenario should also be supported,I file this bug while re-verify bug 1013443,this scenario was supported that time,correct me if I was wrong.

They must be running unattended install (-drive file='answer.vfd'). So, they probably have all required binaries on this floppy.

In any case, Windows needs an appropriate driver to be loaded to work with virtio-scsi disk or cd.
