I thought I'd use an old PC to make a slim server appliance but it's
only optical drive is a DVD reader.  This works fine as a boot CD when
installing windows but the CD image I burned on a CD won't boot.  It
starts booting but then says something about not finding the file
system and drops to a "limited" shell.

I'm a total linux noob as you can tell.  I've been browsing for weeks
trying to get a handle on the basic linux concepts but I fear i missed
something obvious, like  you can't boot a CD from a DVD drive.

Do I have to burn the ISO file to a DVD to get this to work?  Thanks.
