I've successfully installed Mac Sierra, Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 on the same HDD disk and after all this i installed Multibeast, but when i've restarted the laptop I was not able to see the list of clover to choose between the three operating systems and the following phrase appeared: no bootable device
so I had to boot with usb flash and I discovered that the Ubuntu folder inside EFI is the reason, when i put EFI partition and i delete Ubuntu folder from it, i will be able to see the clover list but whitout Ubuntu (only mac & windows) and when i put it inside EFI folder i go back to the same problem (no bootable device).
Help me please :(:(:crazy: Thank you :thumbup::thumbup:

config.plist/GUI/Scan/Linux=true

Did you install Ubuntu in UEFI mode?
Clover will detect Ubuntu automatically if it finds grubx64.efi in EFI/Ubuntu (somewhere in there, I forget the details).
You should look at your EFI/Ubuntu and look at your Clover bootlog.
 
config.plist/GUI/Scan/Linux=true

Sorry Rehabma I am a beginner but I do not have a GUI in my config.plist, I opened it with TextEdit & that's what I found:

<key>Scan</key>

<dict>

<key>Entries</key>

<true/>

<key>Legacy</key>

<false/>

<key>Linux</key>

<true/>

<key>Tool</key>

<true/>

Yes I install Ubuntu in UEFI mode
Yes grubx64.efi is in EFI/Ubuntu

Do not use a text editor. Always use a plist editor such as Xcode or PlistEdit Pro.

yes yes I have PlistEdit Pro and I find config.plist/GUI/Scan/Linux=Yes (not True), I added it because it did not exist before
