Virtual machines from .vdi images

I tried this same build on an Intel-based computer (an HP Z240 with an
Intel SATA controller) but this one gets even less progress.  The driver
reports that there are no AHCI controllers present.  From what I can tell,
this is probably because the controller is set to IDE mode not AHCI mode
but there aren't any options within the BIOS to even change this setting so
I am up against a wall to get this to work on any platform I have tried.
Here is the snippet of logs from this machine:
