I would do the following in your situation.

Grab an usb key and plug it in.
Grab the boot CD and boot the disk.
Download MorphOS.iso to the usb stick.
Download http://www.geit.de/stupid/RegisterISO.lha to the usb stick.
Copy the MorphOS.key to the usb stick.
Double click the RegisterISO.lha and drag out RegisterISO binary to the usb stick.
Open a shell and call
cd UMSD0:
RegisterISO MorphOS_3.1.iso MorphOS.key
Now it will take some time to inject the key.
Insert an empty CD and launch Jalapeno
Drag the iso from usb stick into the window and burn.

Since you store all data on the usb stick, feel free to reboot at any time to reset your timeout. Especially before burning the disk.

Now you have a boot cd without any timeout registered for your system.

I'd say it's a coincidence, because i selected wrong device many times in the past, and the only effect is it does nothing at all. It's just raw read access, nothing is written at all.

The error was probably to reboot while there was still disk access.

Rebooting during (raw) read access is not safe with MorphOS? :-)
