When I've messed with making bootable DVD's, I did everything the same
as making a bootable CD.

The only issue I ran into was some machines didn't boot if the boot
files were very far into the ISO image.  I was making self-booting
recovery disks, that would boot into a small linux environment
(SystemRescueCD) and automatically restore the C: drive (from an apx. 4G
compressed filesystem image).  I found if the isolinux directory with
the boot files came after the 4G filesystem image the DVD wouldn't boot
on all systems.

Other than that, I've found making bootable DVDs is pretty easy.
