[UPDATE: To fix the problem below, and ultimately I had to reformat the hard drive and reinstall El Capitan to remove the problem arg. It was gone when I reformatted and reinstalled, so whatever was causing it was definitely something that got stuck to that installation, and I have no idea how it happened.]
--------------
For the life of me, suddenly tonight I cannot seem to remove nvda_drv=1 from boot arguments in Clover. I'm guessing it happened somewhere after I installed the latest Nvidia drivers and set that argument to see it would finally start with the Nvidia driver (nope!).. Now I can't seem to delete that from the boot args.
So far, I've booted from an existing working ML installation and used Clover Configurator to uncheck the option in config.plist on the EFI partition for the HDD in question, only to realize when Clover booted it was still there. Checking config.plist again it's definite not in there, and I then checked every config.plist anywhere to be sure it wasn't checked in them. So it's stuck in there from somewhere else I guess.
[Update:] On double-checking, it seems to specifically be something stuck in the Clover options on the HDD. I unplugged every drive and booted with just the USB, and the USB does not have in in there. But with the HDD, if I spacebar on the drive and uncheck it in the list of check boxes and delete it from the list of arguments at the top, and uncheck it under Options->'Graphics Injector'->(checkbox for web drivers), it stays gone in that last spot, but it reappears in the list of 'Boot Args' at the top. So anytime I try to boot the HDD, whether from the USB or directly, it loads nvda-drv=1, and the system reboots.
Fwiw, I did go under "Clover Boot Options" and tried 'Remove all Clover boot options' hoping that might get whatever I'm missing, but it's still there.
So, anyone know what I did that stuck this in there and what I need to do to regain the ability to edit these Clover options?
Thanks..
