starting instances from ISO, means NOT starting them from template, so the "disk" properties are, afaik, all read/used from the Disk offering (I say "afaik", because there have been some changes lately, or about to happen) - i.e. you have tohave a Disk Offering with local storage option - then when deploying an instance via ISO, you HAVE to choose the disk offering for your ROOT disk.
