Trying to Dual Boot Mac OS X El Capitan and Ubuntu 16.04

[DigiGoon]

Config:
HP-Pavillion-G6-2231tx
Intel Core i3-3110M
Intel HD4000
Realtek Ethernet
Clover Bootloader r3625

Partition-1: EFI
Partition-2: Mac OS
Partition-3: Ubuntu 16.04


Problem:
So my problem arose after I updated Ubuntu, in those update, there was a new kernel image too, so of course, Grub2 got reinstalled with new configs. After doing the update, Clover doesn't show up, and I get to it by Boot Device Options. Upon booting to Mac OS I reinstalled clover after deleting it from the EFI partition, Clover installed successfully, I then reboot the laptop, but guess what, it boots directly to Ubuntu. No matter how I do it, but now if there is Ubuntu folder with grub in EFI then the laptop boots directly into it whether the Clover is present or not.

Thank you, but please help.

Purge Grub2 from the HDD - it loaded itself Legacy mode. The boot loader in the EFI/Clover/Ubuntu folder should still boot Grub OK.
You might have to go into the BIOS and reset boot order.

Okay, I didn't tried putting Ubuntu in EFI/Clover/, it was sitting in EFI/ only. But now if the problem arise again I'll try that. As I upgraded to macOS Sierra, everything is working fine now. And I just can set boot order for the devices only, as HP BIOS are pretty locked.
Thanks

Sorry, my error I meant to say in the EFI folder with the Clover folder.

Then, I did that already, but still Ubuntu starts only instead of Clover. Now the problem is here again, I purged Grub from EFI/ installed latest Clover, and now putting Grub again in EFI/.

UPDATE:
Still the same, Ubuntu boots instead of clover.

UPDATE-2:
Purged Grub from HDD, still Ubuntu boots instead of Clover.

See http://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-multibooting-uefi.197352/ and skip the Windows install.
