Darrell, Your prophecy was correct. The process failed on my system.
Installed dmc-mitel-recoverydisk-0.0.1-1.noarch.rpm Created disk from Server-manager panel Inserted all media (floppy, tape, CD) Shutdown -r now Type "accept" when prompted (by floppy) Message: Boot failed: Please change disks and press any key to continue... Repeat, same.

One of the obstacles to keep in mind is the recovery disk can not launch any event or action that does not exist on the standard Mitel iso. For instance I could easily build a restore-tape-full event. However since this does not exist on the Mitel iso, you can not use any add-on event. Your stuck with whats on their iso. The only way this could be done is if you create your own custom iso build or Mitel agrees to add a restore-tape-full event and issue an updated iso.
