I need to disable SIP to disable 1080p HDMI limit, and to do this, it's required to boot into recovery partition and user terminal.

I try to do this from the boot screen on clover, but each time I only get a white screen and have to reboot to my normal El Capitan install.

It's not a huge problem as El Cap works fine, but it would be nice to know why I can't get into recovery partition or if others are dealing with this.
 
You can not boot into Recovery Partition in Hackintosh - It does not work.

To disable SIP, use Clover Boot Flag to your configplist under 'RTVariables'

<key>RtVariables</key>
<dict>
...
</dict>

... would replaced with the text below

<key>
CsrActiveConfig</key>
<string>0x67</string>

Reboot
open 'Terminal'
type 'csrutil status'

Results (if successful):

System Integrity Protection status: disabled.
 
Ok, will try thanks!!

I don't see RTVariables listed under Options. First line is Config:config_
 
You can certainly boot to the recovery partition on a Hack if everything is setup properly. With that said, edit your config.plist to include this:

PHP:
    <key>RtVariables</key>
    <dict>
        <key>BooterConfig</key>
        <string>0x28</string>
        <key>CsrActiveConfig</key>
        <string>0x67</string>
    </dict>
 
Thanks, guys, I used Clover Configurator it worked really well. Thanks for your help. I'm not so much a coder as I play one on TV, etc.

yes you can boot to recovery partition with the installer usb's clover boot loader ....
found it accidentally though ...coz i avoid the terminal n command things as much as i can , so i thought i should give it a go with clover in my installer usb n it works..
