I am not sure what installation steps are you after. Are you trying to 
install OpenBSD in a bhyve on FreeBSD host? Why not use host only or jails?

FreeBSD installation is pretty straightforward 
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/bsdinstall.html but details may 
depend if you use EFI or legacy BIOS, if you want ZFS on host or in 
bhyve/jail, etc.
