I don't think you missed anything. It should work since your DVD is
really a DVD/CD drive (one could think of it as a cd drive with added
dvd-functionality). 

About your question. Could you please post the exact error message you
are getting when trying to boot ? Also do you know if the hardware is
special in any way ? E.g. do you have SCSI, some kind of special
hard-drive controllers etc ?
