Why won't my VDS detect/boot from the CD I selected?

If you have a problem with using the virtual DVD drive, try turning off the VDS via the "Server control" page, then turning it back on through the same page.

Additionally, some CD images -- like Windows ones -- prompt briefly for user input and then boot from the hard disk if nothing is entered. You may need to very carefully watch the VNC console and try to catch such a prompt.
