I believe that the control-apple-option-delete thing is a new one for me.
Could you go into that a bit more. I am having some trouble with the boot-up with
CD-ROM.

By defualt (if no volume is defined in the PRAM from the Startup Disk control panel), Macs boot from the first bootable SCSI volume they come to. Cmd-Opt-Shift-Delete skips this and goes for the next one. On a amachine that was not designed when CD ROMs were around (anything up to the SE I'd have thought) this is possibly the only way to boot from a CD.
