I'm trying to use the .NET SDK to upload a bootable VHD to eventually use
to deploy a VM. I assume the correct sequence is upload > create template >
deploy VM.

However, when I upload a volume, there seems to be no way to make that
volume bootable (it's has the type DATADISK). Using it to create a template
once it's uploaded does not work. An error is thrown stating that that
image cannot be used to create a template.

I've also tried registering a template, using a URL to the VHD file I want
to upload in the process. Unfortunately, nothing seems to happen when I try
that. Going through this process also makes me wonder what the difference
of createTemplate & registerTemplate are. I get "create", but there's no
way to register a created template. If "register" creates one, why bother
with "create"?

I feel like I'm missing something obvious when failing at this process :)
