I copied miniroot69.img from
cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/powerpc64/
a few days ago onto a flash usb stick. Fdisk reports
*0 id=0c start=8192 size=32668 FAT32L
3 id=a6 start 40960 size=26624 OpenBSD
and mount /dev/sd1i as msdos shows the two files you predicted:
boot size 11554783, which seems right for bsd.rd
grub.cfg with contents
menuentry "OpenBSD install" {
linux /boot
initrd /boot
}
so the flash stick seems ok.
On a console directly connected to the motherboard serial port, Petitboot
says:

The firmware is certainly not current; Raptor issued a 2.0 update last month
for example. I had thought maybe better to use flash parts that had been
working reliably for a couple years. Happy to update if y'all expect this
is my problem.
