Hello!
I easily install Yosemite (10.10.5) according to the instructions (UniBeast+MultiBeast):
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/unibeast-install-os-x-yosemite-on-any-supported-intel-based-pc.143976/

But the update to El Capitan can not. I do not have a folder /EFI/ in the root directory (anywhere is not).



And so, I can not perform steps 2 and 3:

2. Open Clover configuration folder on the root of your system drive or EFI Partition. Copy FakeSMC.kext and any other extra necessary kexts from /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.10/ to /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.11/. If you need essential kexts, download them here.

3. Open /EFI/CLOVER/config.plist with TextEdit and add the following BooterConfig and CsrActiveConfig keys to RtVariables section. This will partially disable SIP (System Integrity Protection) when booting OS X El Capitan.

What to do?

The EFI is a partition on your Yosemite drive. In the Terminal, type/run:

diskutil list

Then user EFI Mounter v3 to mount your EFI partition.

Hey! I don't seem to have the RtVariables section in my config.plist. Any way of adding it to it?

Hi guys, I am using Yosemite and in config.plist there is no RtVariables? where it is supposed to be, or added? can someone help please?

I found the answer myself.....if anybody has the same issue , here is what I did: Download Clover configurator, there is an option there for RtVariables, also If you don't see EFI partition , download EFI Mounter V3.
Upgrade from Yosemite to El Capitan went smooth with CLOVER and the great guide found here in tonymacx86, thank you very much to all the contributors to this site for share your knowledge with us!!!

would this work from a Mavericks install with clover? I want to update but I don't wanna do it from scratch.. I'd rather just wait until I absolutely need to if this won't work

Yes, it work work if you follow post #1's procedures.

I keep getting stuck at step 6. I'm on Mavericks trying to update to El Capitan and following this thread: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/upgrade-from-mavericks-chimera-to-el-capitan-clover.195030/ But when I get to the Clover Boot Screen, it looks like this [see attached] and I don't see where to boot OS X and I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
