It should be able to boot, providing you are burning it right.
I tried using nero to burn EvoX, and couldn't get it to work.
Can you get a hold of RecordNow or Prassi PrimoDVD? EvoX worked for me using these programs.
Both are pretty much are the same program, and alot of members here use them as the standard, and some of the tutorials are based upon using these programs. You should be able to find them in the usual places. I think you might get a little more help regarding the proper settings to use if you can get a copy of one of these programs. Sorry if this doesn't really help you, I'm just showing you what worked for me.
