On the ERL, try typing 'usb reset' to the boot loader if it does not detect a USB stick. That made any USB stick work for me and also improved system stability in general. 'usb reset' can also be put into the bootcmd variable. The INSTALL.octeon file mentions this now (in 6.1). See there for details.
