If you have an ISO install image for a distro that you want to make into a VPS, you can install it in AppLogic as a fully virtualized VM first, then convert it to run under a para-virutalized kernel (like most VPSes shipped with AppLogic).

The following guides will help you do this:

Running an installation from a CD image:

Converting the installed OS to PVM mode:
http://doc.3tera.com/AppLogic27/RefHvm2Pv.html

Preparing the OS to run under AppLogic:
http://doc.3tera.com/AppLogic27/AdvAPKInstallGuideUbuntu.html

If you have a ready-made OS installation, which was done on a real server, you can also convert that to a VPS. The last of the above guides should provide the necessary info.

NOTE: the following bit is missing from the guides:
Debian and other OS-es have UDEV rules to rename NICs at boot time. AppLogic does not guarantee constant MAC addresses, so these should be disabled, to allow the kernel to assign automatic names that won't change between reboots. The exact file names that need to be touched depend on the specific distro, the example below is for Debian 4:
cd /etc/udev/rules.d
mv z45_persistent-net-generator.rules ~
mv z25_persistent-net.rules ~
