I have seen it suggested here from many that it is not optimal configuration to share Harddrives and optical drives on the same IDE channel.

I would put the HDD on IDE1 and the two opticals on IDE2.
As for booting, I would go: floppy, CD, HDD. It'll run fine the way you have it, but if you really want to get optimial performance, go ahead and change it.
