I've made it through the OS install, I've run MultiBeast, installed Clover manually on my SSD, edited my config.plist, and installed all necessary kexts via Clover Configurator, but my new build still cant run without the install disk inserted. I think all I'm missing is a functioning bootloader. What should I do?

Boot from your USB and when you get to the desktop download and run EFI Mounter and mount the EFI partition of your USB.
Copy the entire /EFI folder from the EFI partition of your USB to the desktop.
Eject the USB.
Run EFI Mounter again and mount the EFI partition of your SSD.
Delete the entire /EFI folder from the EFI partition of your SSD.
Copy the /EFI folder from your desktop to the EFI partition of your SSD.
Restart
You should now be able to boot from your SSD in the same way that you could previously boot from your USB.
