GRUB2 should boot just fine from a CD.
Basically I hack away at my "kernel attempt" on a an '05 iBook (dev
system is 10.4), and decided to look into making a bootable CD so I
could use QEMU PPC emulator instead of rebooting to test after every
compile.
I created the bootinfo file (like this):
<snip>
If I boot up while holding "C", I get the gray screen, I can hear the
CDROM spin up, then I get kicked back to the white and black OF screen
and there is an error about memory access violation.
You didn't mention where you placed the bootinfo.txt. It should be
/ppc/chrp/bootinfo.txt on the CD.
http://penguinppc.org/ppc64/power-bootable-iso/ may have some
information that helps you (though some of it isn't directly
applicable).
