Just today februari 23, I tried to update Clover, but was probably not prepared for the black screen problem.
I updated with Clover Configurator from r4862 to r5...
I found an old thread how to copy aptiomemoryfix to the efi map by using clover shell commands.
unfortunately that didnt fix the problem.
Anyone for a solution?

My current OS is Mojave 10.14.5

In the new(er) versions of Clover the folder structure has changed so that drivers are now in a different location.
Make sure that all of the drivers that you need are in the new location.
 
The picture is too small to see anything.
 
Ok, made a little progress. Was not aware that the new clover made a new map called drivers. First attempts I put aptiomemoryfix-64.efi in the drivers64uefi map (with clover terminal commands). But still black screen. after many attempts I put the aptiomemoryfix-64 in the new drivers map. Now I was able to boot:)
But as I understand, that was not the proper way. So I will try to make a new Clover install with the download from Tonymac clover page. And before restarting I wil do a good check on the efi map!!!
would be helpfull for noobs as me to have proper warnings and manuals on how to update Clover.
Attached is a better picture of my efi backup (r4862). Should I try to install all of these in the new clover install?

Solved. And without any help!
Was able to use a Clover update from tonymac website. Then, first checked the new driversmap and saw that there was a new aptiomemoryfix file in the drivers map. Also some other files were put there.
then I dated to restart and it all worked. After that I was able to update to Catalina with my GA-H97N-Wifi.
