Hold down the option key while booting you should get the option to select a 
plugged-in bootable USB volume.

IMac G5 (white) USB boot

2015-05-21 Thread Max LeBlanc
Hi,

I'm trying to install an updated version of Debian on an iMac g5 currently
running an old version of Debian.

Since the last install a few years ago, the CD died.

I was wondering if any of you folks knew how to force-boot on a USB key?

Thanks!

-Max.
