Look in it and see if you can set the boot order, and if CDROM is an
option in such an order.

If so then your system probably supports bootable CDs (ie El Torrito).

We have an El Torito's here in Eugene, guys, and yeah, it's not wonderful
food -- expensive fake Mexican.  Better than Taco Hell tho.

The fish house across the street is much better. :)
