OK so I got hold of another PC today, a HP 800 G1 i7. I moved the PCIE card into that and the bios sees it as a boot drive. So our assumption is correct that you cannot boot from PCIE connected M.2 drives on the 8300.
THe G1 is in really nice condition so I might try doing the install in that instead. It's not beat up like the 8300 I have so if I can get it installed then it will be a nicer looking machine overall anyway![]()
Try putting your EFI folder on another drive. Once Clover loads, if it sees your PCI drive, you should be able to select and boot from it.
