Sounds like you have a PS2 phat with FreeMcBoot [version 1.8] installed, yes? If so, you can add "shortcuts" to the fmcb menu for apps that are on your USB stick.
Navigate to the Free McBoot Configurator option on the fmcb menu and click "X."
Click, "O" and proceed with the default button configuration.
**Free McBoot Settings screen**
Click down on the D-Pad until you reach "Configure OSDSYS options..." (On-Screen-Display System)
Click "O"
**OSD Settings screen**
Click down on the D-Pad until you reach "Configure Item 1 : ________"
Note that the _______ will be replaced with the first item on your fmcb menu screen after "Browser" and "System Configuration"
(in my case, it's "uLaunchELF")
Click right on the D-Pad and note that the items on your fmcb menu screen appear in order.
(uLaunchELF, ESR GUI, Open PS2 Loader, HD Loader, etc.)
Continue to click right and note that "Free McBoot Configurator" is Item 100
(you can also click left instead if you don't feel like counting to 100)
Navigate to an empty Item (let's use Item 50: ) and press, "O"
**Item 50 Settings screen**
Click down on the D-Pad to " Path1:" and press "O"
mc0:/ is the Memory Card slot closest to the edge
mc1:/ is the Memory Card next to it, and
mass:/ is your USB drive
Click down on the D-pad to "mass:/" and press "O"
(at this point, let's assume that you are trying to add a SNES emulator shortcut to your fmcb menu screen via an SNES emulator app on your USB stick.)
Navigate through your USB stick's folder hierarchy and find the "snes_emu.elf"
Click, "O" to set
**Item 50 Settings screen** ..again.
"Path1: " should now have a path to the emu located on your USB stick.
Click up on the D-Pad to "Name:" and click, "O"
Use the onscreen keypad to name this shortcut what you would like it to appear on your fmcb menu screen.
Let's use the word, "test" (remember, "O" is okay; not "X")
Hit Triangle to return
**OSD Settings screen**
Hit "Triangle"
**Free McBoot Settings screen**
Click down on the D-Pad to "Save CNF to MC0" ...or MC1 depending on where your fmcb mc is located and press, "O"
There will be red text text up above:
Saved mc_:/SYS-CONF/FREEMCB.CNF (where _, is either 0 or 1)
Click the D-Pad down to "PS2 Browser (FMCB Restart) and press, "O"
There should now be an extra item in your fmcb menu titled, "test."
Press, "X" and voila.
