I haven't used k3b yet, but I've burned the iso using xcdroast serveral
times and had no problem booting. My understanding is that since its an
"iso" it should contain everything it needs to be bootable. You might want
to verify that k3b is actually burning the disk as an image and not
creating a filesystem and then placing the the iso as a file on the cd (I
hope that made sense), but other than that it should work.
