Hi both
This might not be of any use, but back when I tried an ASUS motherboard (H97M-Plus) I discovered a common problem was that some ASUS motherboards would not boot from a GUID format EFI partition (GUID includes the 200MB hidden EFI partition which we usually use to put Clover etc.)
The answer was to use MBR and create an EFI folder on the main drive then set booting to take place from there.
Annoyingly the link in my build (UtterDisbelief 6 - May 7th 2015) is now re-directed so I don't know right now where it's gone.
My link had been: http://www.tonymacx86.com/25-boot0-error-official-guide.html - however this now re-directs to:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/boot0-error-the-official-guide.65706/ - which covers a similar problem but not exactly.
It is possible to install the EFI on your main SSD partition and then use Terminal to make that bootable. It's what I did. But as I say the link is either gone or buried.
However this was installing using Chimera, not Clover.
Interestingly you can now apparently boot MBR using Clover options (ignore my ticks, this is just a quick start-up of Clover for you):
but I could use a hand myself in selecting the right options here without the guide!
