maybe you need an initrd that loads the cdrom and ide-cd drivers?

Here is my linuxrc for booting with a root fs on cd.
#! /bin/sh

export PATH=/bin

echo "Loading module cdrom ..."
insmod cdrom

echo "Loading module ide-cd ..."
insmod ide-cd


I once set up a X terminal to run entirely from a cd. If you understand a 
little german have a look at http://www.zikurrat.net/XTerminal/.
