Making a boot CD - ohhhh, I'm close!

Well, I still can't boot the thing on my G4 :-( I'm now using
precisely the command give here below from the FC release. I don't
think it matters that I'm not making a DVD but rather a CD. The only
differences in my incantation vs the one below is that instead of
/srv/pungi/f7/blah/blah I have my own path to my .iso being produced,
and my own path to the contents of the FC6 CD1 which I've blown open
into my filesystem. mkisofs completes and then I burn the CD with :
sudo cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=/dev/cdwriter /path/to/my.iso
All I get is "Booting CDROM..." and then it hangs
Anyway, looks like it's time to dig into pungi unless someone else has
an idea what I'm doing wrong here.
/usr/bin/mkisofs -v -U -J -R -T -part -hfs -r -l -sysid PPC
-no-desktop -allow-multidot -chrp-boot -map
/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/boot/mapping -magic
/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/boot/magic -hfs-bless
/srv/pungi/f7gold/7/Fedora/ppc/os/ppc/mac -V "Fedora 7 ppc DVD" -o
/srv/pungi/f7gold/7/Fedora/ppc/iso/F-7-ppc-DVD.iso
/srv/pungi/f7gold/7/Fedora/ppc/os
