The initrd on the CD only contains modules for access to common OldWorld SCSI devices, not the journalled filesystems, so you'll experience a panic at boot when the kernel can't mount root. So unless you're equipped to be able to retrieve the initrd from the Linux side and move it over to MacOS (HFS transfer partition or network?), you'll have a bit of a problem.
