If you are working on Linux, the fastest way is to create a bootable USB is to run the command:

dd bs=1M conv=fdatasync if=./proxmox-ve_*.iso of=/device/name

Modify the file name and path in if=./proxmox-ve_*.iso and make sure to provide the correct USB device name in of=/device/name.

To find the name of your USB stick, run the following command before and after plugging in the device:

lsblk

Compare the output. The additional entry in the second output is the name of the device.
