Hardware
See Linux Hardware Probe #4e38982788 of Dell Latitude E6430

On the manufacturer's internet site the hardware components are listed on the support page in the Components section. Hardware detection shown below is done running the laptop under SystemRescueCd-x86-5.0.0 in UEFI boot mode.

This computer provides a boot menu and a configuration tool for creating, sorting or deleting boot items. The content of the ESP is visible to this tool and creating a boot item is like choosing the medium from a given selection, then surfing through the ESP and selecting the item, e.g vmlinuz-4.9.16-gentoo.efi.

Alternatively, efibootmgr can be used for generating the UEFI boot items.

The file can be used for an EFI boot entry without further copying, moving or renaming. Even if it were renamed foobar, the UEFI would start it.
