Hi Owen

You probably only need to unpack
http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/amd64/12.0-CURRENT/*.txz ;
I'm assuming this snapshot is still from the same date as your
installer. If your USB stick has the txz on it, then you can extract
them from there as well. Something like

tar -xf docs.txz -C /

is probably all you need. NB not tested, viz xkcd.com/1168
