Latitude 7290 & 7280
Installing OpenBSD on old Dell Latitude 7290 and 7280 was pretty straight forward.
Needed hints from OpenBSD UEFI bootloader to get OpenBSD installed, also needed to play with the Dell BIOS to set it to legacy mode to install and then set it back to UEFI to boot.
doas /sbin/newfs_msdos sd1i
doas mount /dev/sd1i /mnt2
doas mkdir -p /mnt2/efi/boot
doas cp /usr/mdec/BOOTX64.EFI /mnt2/efi/boot
According to Wikipedia the 7290 is a 2018 model (went out of support in 2022) and the 7280 is a 2017 model.
