A CD with the bootonly image and a USB stick with the minimemstick both 
show up in PowerMac G5 boot menu, but upon selecting either, the screen 
goes blank for a moment and I'm kicked back to the boot menu.

I can boot from the full memstick image, but end up getting read errors 
during install, which I think it an incompatibility of the USB stick.

My optical drive won't read DVDs.

I'll have to find another USB stick that works with the PowerMac, but 
wanted to report the issues with minimemstick and bootonly.

Best,

     JB
