New Lenovo laptops are getting kinda infamous for their comically bad
UEFI implementations. They hardly boot anything but Windows. You may be
on a blind path there.

Try disabling secure boot if you haven't done so already, and try
chainloading OpenBSD through a boot manager like rEFInd (I've been
booting OpenBSD with it for a long time, albeit with CSM support).
