MAC bootmanger does'nt recognize USB-ports. But you can boot manually by typing following in OpenFirmware console:
Code:
boot ud:,boot.img ramdebug BD=<name of partition with MOS-System without ":">
Notice: This is the name of the partition you gave in HDToolbox -
Not the name you may have given by formatting this partition!Stick needs 2 partition:
1. HFS formated with boot.img (a few MB are enough - needed only for boot.img)
2. SFS formated with MOSsystem
Normaly OF creates a virtual device named <ud> pointing to a (used) USB-port. You can see this by typeing <devalias> in OF-console. USB should be inserted before reboot - some MACs does'nt create the ud-device if inserted later.
If your MAC does'nt create <ud> it is also possible to boot from USB, but it is a bit more complex.
