This change is about testing those ISO images, and whether or not those ISO 
images are release-blocking. If it's not a valid CD image (meaning it wouldn't 
boot when put into a real disk drive), it most likely wouldn't work in the 
virtual CD images.

It definitely wouldn't work in something like a T400 running the boot firmware 
provided by Lenovo, where you've got to drop a working CD/DVD into the drive 
to boot from external media. This also doesn't solve anything for the users 
that have first or second generation UEFI systems, or those with UEFI firmware 
provided by a vendor, that doesn't support USB boot.

Instead of trying to attack CD/DVD installs, why not keep what's working in 
the state it's already in?
