Installing to the HDD/SSD after installation is very similar to installing to the USB. Refer back to this section when you get to that stage.
I can't able to boot from SSD. I've installed clover as mentioned. Do I have to put the HFPlus.efi, edited conflig.plist, FakeSMC.kext and Voodoo kext the same way as I did with USB installer?

Yes, of course.
 
Image of EFI/Clover not requested.

Attach actual EFI/Clover as ZIP (remove themes).

But from your image, it is clear you didn't follow the guide. Read post #1. Carefully.

sorry here is the .zip
i have read post 1 but can't see what I've done wrong?

now getting this?

drivers64UEFI is missing OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi.

Clover/kexts/Other is not per guide. FakeSMC is not the kext linked from the guide. All 'sensor' kexts should be removed. GenericUSBXHCI.kext is not recommended and should be removed. You're missing VoodooPS2Controller.kext, which is required if you plan to use the built-in trackpad/keyboard.

Make sure you set DVMT-prealloc as described in the FAQ.
 
I get occasional kernel panics when try to boot. And sometimes my system restarts automatically. Especially when it is not active for few minutes. Is it normal? Or is there a problem?
