The issue was the USB stick did not appear in the disk selection dialog.

- I'd like to spare the OpenBSD servers redundant download requests.

- The "INSTALLATION NOTES for OpenBSD/amd64 7.5" say: "It may save much
time and frustration to download the distribution sets to a local server
or disk and perform the installation from there, rather than directly
from the internet."

Best regards
