592- The number of CD-ROM drives a single Instance may have is bounded by the
593- global setting ``vm.cdrom.max.count `` (default ``1 ``) and by the hypervisor's
594- own limit. The effective maximum for an Instance is the smaller of the two.

596- On KVM with the default ``i440fx `` machine type, the IDE bus has four device
597- slots in total - the root disk takes one, and the remaining usable slots map
598- to ``hdc `` and ``hdd ``, giving a practical maximum of **2 ** CD-ROMs per
599- Instance regardless of how high ``vm.cdrom.max.count `` is set.

601- When multiple ISOs are attached, the first one occupies the bootable
602- ``hdc `` slot and is the one the firmware will try to boot from first.
603- Subsequent attachments are placed in the next free slots (``hdd ``, etc.).
604- The Attach ISO action is hidden from the Instance's action menu once the
605- Instance has reached its effective maximum.
606-
607- The same multi-ISO behavior is available via the ``attachIso `` API. Each
608- call attaches one ISO into the next free slot; attempting to attach the
609- same ISO twice, or to attach beyond the effective maximum, returns an
610- error.
592+ The maximum number of ISOs that may be attached to an Instance is controlled
593+ by the global setting ``vm.cdrom.max.count `` (default ``1 ``); on KVM, the
594+ hypervisor caps it at ``2 ``. The first ISO attached is the bootable one;
595+ the Attach ISO action is hidden once the Instance reaches its limit.
