A CD with the bootonly image and a USB stick with the minimemstick both=20
show up in PowerMac G5 boot menu, but upon selecting either, the screen=20
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=20
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=20
wanted to report the issues with minimemstick and bootonly.

Best,
