No. AFAIK no Mac boots from USB, certainly nothing before the G5's

I can't seem to boot from a drive (10gb) in a Firewire enclosure.
Same thing, I can select it as my startup disk and then system
then doesn't see it. Do you think it might be because of the
second party PCI Firewire card I'm using?
Not necessarily. Some enclosures (mostly older ones) won't let you
boot, and older macs won't boot from Firewire, anyway. <http://
