Kiwi (the system which creates our vmware image) uses qemu-img to create
the disk image.  qemu-img cannot create or convert to a scsi vmdk type.
Also there are no other tools to convert from an ide disk to scsi.

Thank you for the suggestion.  Sorry for taking so long to get back to
you about this.
