4.9 install CD won't boot on Toshiba Tecra 8000

I've burned a 4.9 ISO onto a CD-R and it won't boot on
my Tecra 8000!  This CD will boot on another PC but
just not on this one.  Also, the Toshiba CAN and DOES
boot other CDs.  For example, I was able to boot from
CD and install
Mandrake 9.2 on the Tecra.   So I'm not sure why this
particular CD won't boot on the Tecra.  Any ideas? 

I don't have a floppy drive so I'm not sure how else
to install FreeBSD. Can I install FreeBSD from Linux
(Mandrake 9.2)?  Are there any other
options I should consider?

In case it helps, I've pasted the dmesg output from
Linux on the Tecra.
