Yes you can, but only if the BIOS setting permits it. If it doesn't do it automatically you will have to check the "Boot devices" settings and make sure CD-ROM comes first in the list.
You can check the BIOS settings at the point when you boot up the PC after it has been switched off. Switch on the PC and then, during the boot-up phase, you must keep holding down the 'Delete' key until the BIOS settings screen is displayed.
Then find the "Boot devices screen" and use the 'Page Up' and 'Page Down' keys to ensure that "Boot from CD-ROM" appears 1st in the list and the Hard Disk appears 2nd in the list. Then save the settings and allow the PC to reboot. It will then check if there is a CD-ROM inserted in the drive. If there is a CD-ROM there it will try to boot from it.
If you have made the PC's 2nd boot device the Hard Disk then, if there is no CD-ROM in the drive, the PC will go to the the Hard Disk to boot up.
All that will happen automatically every time the PC is rebooted.

Does a system disk have to be a floppy disk?
No. A "system disk" is simply any disk which the computer can boot from and has an operating system installed on it. In most modern computer systems, the hard disk is normally the system disk. However most systems can also boot from a floppy disk, a cdrom, or even a USB thumb drive, providing of course that the media in question has the necessary system files on it. Many older systems did not have the ability to boot from the cdrom drive or USB drives. On these systems the only options were booting from the hard disk or floppy disk, so if the OS hadnt been installed to the hard disk yet (or it was broken) the only other option was the floppy disk.
