Description
Something seems to be wrong with the PCI device class of virtio network devices in VirtualBox 7.0.6.
Using a given linux ISO, I create a VM that has a couple of network adapters using an "adapter type" of 82540EM, and a couple using an "adapter type" of "virtio-net".
When creating the VM using virtualbox 7.0.6, if I run "lspci" the virtio devices show up as "Non-VGA unclassified device".
