using oclp on a computer without a monitor?

I've been running my mac mini headless and going into it when needed by screen sharing via network to my laptop.

When booting up the OS from flash drive for the first time, I assume the mini will disconnect from the network. this means i won't be able to use screen share anymore and won't be able to actually pick the flash drive when choosing where to boot from. am i right?

I don't want to buy a monitor but i guess i may have to 😭
