The Windows DISKPART command-line utility (Windows Vista and later) can split your USB disk into multiple partitions. There are no GUI tools that can do this, to the best of my knowledge, though perhaps the Disk Management (diskmgmt.msc) snap-in can. On Mon, 21 Sep 2015 16:24:40 +0330 Mohammad Ba

There is no official live image for openbsd. There's install image which runs in ramdisk but this is not usual livecd-like environment. Thus, install onto disk - usb flash media. There's no difference between usb flash and usual disk install. Read docs, FAQ as it is obvious you have limited knowl
