Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3P motherboard with F7 BIOS (UEFI capable)
i7-3770 CPU using integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000
Created USB flash drive using Unibeast 6.0, no problems
Boot from USB flash drive, no problems
Erased SSD (single partition) named El Capitan, no problems (second time, I needed to unmount it first before being able to successfully Erase it)
Initial install runs without error, reboots
Select to Boot from El Capitan drive, install continues and completes
Installed El Capitan post-install tools for UEFI systems
Ran CustoMac Essentials install
Unable to boot from the El Capitan OS disk or Recovery
BIOS lists the following devices as boot options
Mac OS X
Mac OS X
UEFI: Samsung 830 Series SSD
No matter what I select, it won't boot without using the USB flash drive (from which I installed).
One thing I noticed, is that the SSD is using CoreStorage (see info below for disk0 which is the physical disk and disk1 which is the logical CoreStorage volume). I seem to recall this being an issue when I used Clover for Yosemite and this needed to be reverted to a non-CoreStorage disk/volume before it would work properly. Is that still the case with El Capitan?
$ diskutil list disk0
/dev/disk0 (internal, physical):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *128.0 GB disk0
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1
2: Apple_CoreStorage El Capitan 127.2 GB disk0s2
3: Apple_Boot Recovery HD 650.0 MB disk0s3
$ diskutil list disk1
/dev/disk1 (internal, virtual):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: Apple_HFS El Capitan +126.8 GB disk1
Logical Volume on disk0s2
5C39FDED-E20A-417D-94DF-DE2395EC51E5
Unencrypted
Using the commands below, I mounted the EFI partition of disk0:
mkdir /Volumes/EFI
sudo mount_msdos /dev/disk0s1 /Volumes/EFI
When I look in /Volumes/EFI, there is only one file (so none of the typical Clover stuff one would expect to find, including config.plist):
$ cd /Volumes/EFI/EFI/APPLE/EXTENSIONS
$ ls -al
total 30724

I'm sure this is an issue, I'm just not sure if one should revert the disk to non-CoreStorage or do something else.
Anyone?
Btw, I need to be able to boot from the Recovery Disk to be able to turn off SIP so I can install the OpenZFS driver to get at all my data.
