What are the types of your operands? VHDL only predefines "/" for integer and floating point types. I suggest using IEEE.NUMERIC_STD, which defines "/" for both UNSIGNED and SIGNED types.

Quartus II will infer the LPM_DIVIDE megafunction for "/" though you can control the implementation more finely if you instantiate it yourself.
