--- Comment #5 from Mason Loring Bliss <mason@blisses.org> ---
I'd opened a case with Vultr and they've made a change (different emulated 
chipset? unsure - I don't have details) that allows stock ISOs to boot for 
me. For older VMs having an ISO attached and potentially for datacenters 
that haven't received the fix, the hint noted above seems to reliably work:

1. boot, access console, escape to loader prompt
2. using the lovely "paste" function at the left, set a hint:

    set hint.vtrnd.0.disabled=1

3. type 'boot'
