@greylinux it depends on what your definition of "live" is, and what you need it to do. The bsd.rd image is often enough for manipulating disks (formatting, partitioning, etc) and includes some networking tools (not terribly useful for wireless interfaces due to firmware blobs).
Alternatively, a full-fledged system (with X11, if you prefer) can be installed on a separate USB stick. I've seen some folks use https://fuguita.org/ for this (though, not officially affiliated with #openbsd)
Funny you should say that , last night I felt adventurous and installed OpenBSD on another drive as you mentioned , it went without a hitch. I wasn't so lucky with fuguita , I couldn't get passed the allocated memory question. I will test more today, but I think I will I stall OpenBSD on my SSD, it seemed a lot more stable that FreeBSD on this laptop.
