i have had luck registering & running many unsupported operating system on
xenserver + cloudstack  by choosing the  OS TYPE as
"Other (64bit)"  while registering the ISO in ACS.


for example ... you can register the iso for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS , CoreOS ,if
you choose Other (64bit) as OS Type  from the drop down menu it will work.

****  ... please Don't use Other Linux (64bit) because this will fail when
booting from the ISO.

        .... also ofcourse dont forget to select  Bootable  :-0


thanks
