      I am having trouble getting my first VM to boot from the ISO I downloaded.
      ISO is Debian 12, XCP-ng is a fresh install on my server, Xen Orchestra is a fresh install as well with my 30 day trial license.
      ISO storage has been created and Debian ISO has been uploaded to this storage.
      I have created a new VM with the Debian 12 template. The only I changed was the boot order and disabled network boot.
      Once I start up the VM I get an error, "Boot device: CD-Rom526MB Medium detected - failure: could not read boot disk"
      I removed the VM a few times and created a new one but still not working.
      I have even re-downloaded the ISO from Debian a few times as well and uploaded to ISO storage, but that has not fixed this issue either.
      Not sure what I am missing.

        oh boy, you are right!
        I downloaded the incorrect ISO from Debian. (what a noob, lol)
        It is working now. Thank you for your help.

          You probably have an issue with your ISO. Can you show us the SR ISO and the ISO inside?

            @olivierlambert Sure thing,
            Here is the ISO SR and the 2 ISOs I have uploaded.

            The Win10 ISO works fine.

              Why are you trying to boot an Arm 64 bit ISO instead of an AMD 64 bit ISO? I suppose it's a mistake, right? 😉 You are a bit "too much" in the future, I hope we got there, but not yet 😉
