Is there a way to force the CD/DVD drive to boot from maybe an installed boot manager package that I can install on my Debian 8 system so as to boot the Debian 11 DVD and regenerate my system?
If it's a UEFI system, you can change the boot order and other parameters using the efibootmgr command. If it's an older machine with traditional Bios-based firmware, and there's no option to access the firmware interface over IPMI or a serial port, then you're lacking any standard option as far as I know.
