I've had situations where the daily builds have thrown a media change message and asked for the disk that was already being used to install the system to be put into the machine. Unfortunately, the drive door is locked and the media change dialog only respects alt-fx alt-f2 ... and ejecting the disk and replacing it and doing alt-f1 and hitting enter leaves the system in a closed loop. One might be forgiven if they thought Microsoft paid crackers had gotten to the code and broken it if they didn't know any better.
