[Guide] Booting the OS X installer on LAPTOPS with Clover

Followed instructions at beginning of this thread:
  1. Downloaded latest Clover from Rehabman branch and applied to USB that was formatted on a Mac. Checked checked first two boxes, otherwise left defaults.
  2. Installed bootable Mojave on USB using sudo command shown.
  3. Made changes to BIOS on laptop
  4. Booted to Clover: no OSX drive listed - only Windows.

I am trying to install to second SSD on this laptop and will dual boot. Questions:

  1. What am I missing? Why no OSX install option?
  2. Will the stock config.plist file that comes with Clover_v2.4k_r4701.RM-4963.ca6cca7c be close enough for install?

Thanks!

PS My signature WAS, but I was banned for using it (!), so... Working on laptop. Desktop is 100%.
Laptop: ASUS Q405UA | i5-8250U | HD620
Desktop: Gigabyte Z370N | i5-8400 | Giga RX 580 8

You probably forgot HFSPlus.efi in drivers64UEFI.
Not possible to say for sure as you also forgot to attach problem reporting files.
 
HI RehabMan,
need you help to get fully working UHD 620 Graphics in majavo.

Follow the Clover guide linked from the FAQ.

Although you should read the FAQ for an overview of issues, the Clover guide is linked from the first question: "Q. Where do I start?", just after the bold face "Clover Guide".
Here is a direct link, just to be clear:

Also, your profile must be filled out with complete details as requested in the FAQ, again under "Q. Where do I start?". All seven details requested are equally important.

And if you have an issue (after following the guide), or on any other problem, you must provide a detailed description of the problem including information that helps us understand what you're doing. Always attach "Problem Reporting" files as per FAQ.
The required files and data are fully detailed in the last question in the FAQ:
"Q. What are typical "Problem Reporting" files?"

Off-topic.
Open a separate thread with problem reporting files as per FAQ.
