its more that some old cd drives dont read cdr so well. (high quality, slowly burned cdr may work better).

it seems that some mac are having problems booting ubuntu. mostly new powerbooks. also the xorg.conf is not always set properly.

have a look though 
http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=95 

you might find some tips/similar problems there.

with some testing of the next few dapper flight cds, and bug filing prehaps we can avoid these proplems for dapper.
