    boot usb1:2,\\bootinfo.txt for example after checking using disk utility with OSX what the partition number the boot partition is on the USB stick AND which is the correct usb alias for the port the stick is plugged into and I'm getting no boot with the error "LOAD-SIZE is too small!"

    When the USB stick is plugged into the Mac when OSX is loaded I can see the "boot" partition and it contains:
    boot.img
    bootinfo.txt

    You're using a wrong syntax there in the OF prompt, please refer this page and try to get files listed from OF first.

    I actually had one PowerMac G4 that did show a partitioned and MorphOS installed USB stick in Startup Manager and I was able to boot it from the graphical menu. But I guess it had some very uncommon firmware version :) Too bad I don't have the machine anymore to inspect more.
