Are you using GVP's install disk (FaaastPrep)? Or the WB2.1 install disk?

GVP SCSI should autoboot and not require any additional drivers. Is the autoboot jumper on the HD+8 set correctly?

The Amiga should see the drive without software drivers in SYS:Expansion, or wherever. The autoboot ROM should load the driver into memory automatically as one of the very first steps of the boot process.

I'm guessing either you have a bad 4.15 ROM (not likely, but handy that you can easily burn another), or that the Games/Autoboot switch isn't actually connected inside, so it's defaulting to no autoboot.

What version of FaaastPrep are you using?
