I don't think the OpenBSD license call allow it in the core install.

Another possible solution is to make a default 5.4 install to a raw qemu image
in OSX or FreeBSD and dd that to a usb stick.

I'm trying to install the released OpenBSD 5.4 onto a old-ish netbook
without an optical drive. I thought I could do this via
install54.iso; I can see where I need to get to, and can almost get
there, but I can't find the last step.
I suspect this needs only a 1- or 2-line answer.
