Guys!
i just install 3 OSs
1.SSD - 10.10.5
2.SSD - win10
3.HDD - Debian8.7
I removed all drives before instaal Debian.
So, MacOS boots fine, Win10 boots fine....Debian won't....
i see i clover Linux icon, chossing it goes to black screen and nothing more...of I touch any key i went back to clover menu...
if i press F8 during bios boot and choose boot from drive where Debian, it boots fine...
I cannot understand why clover see Debian but not booting it.
Click to expand...
You need to edit the config.plist so that it sees the Debian boot drive UUID as a bootable drive. There is a guide on the Arch Linux site you can follow.
 
Already tried...
my mobo isn't UEFI...
.....,but installing LinuxMint is just fine.
Clover see it and boot...
but i want debian instead of...
 
do you mean Scan - Linux or adding custom entires?

for now, i cut off a 70Gb from SSD where win10 and installed debian on it.

So its working? If not, press F2 at the Clover menu to save preboot.log to /efi/clover/misc/preboot.log and upload that file + config.plist zipped.

as i said i have non-UEFI motherboard...this won\t help me and i am not so kool as you)
if you'll tell be more with frendly speaking words)
iva already tried to make castum entires poiting to Debian...but no luck
for now i see 2 Linuxs' in clover) non of them booting...

for now, i cut off a 70Gb from SSD where win10 and installed debian on it.

Clover can be installed Legacy mode for non-UEFI builds. My X58A is legacy BIOS and is is running High Sierra 10.13.2 on APFS formatted SSD right now.
It is the procedure to find your UUID of the Debian boot volume and add a pointer to it in Clover that I tried to point you to.
 
not working....
pressing F2 didn\t create log file.
but I make bdmesg and dmesg... may be it will help you to help me)
also config.plist is attached in archive.
as i see in bdmesg, clover see the /boot
