Boot1 Error - Resource busy

I have an upgraded hackintosh (El Capitan - Clover) - Everything works great, but I cannot boot directly from the hard drive (boot1 error).  I had this issue when I installed Mavericks as well, and I believe the fix is as follows:

 

sudo dd if=/usr/standalone/i386/boot1h of=/dev/disk1s2

 

Here's where the problem comes in:  When I attempt to do this, I get "the resource is busy."

 

I expect this because the drive is the operating system drive.  But how do I overcome this?  I tried dropping to the clover shell, but that doesn't appear to have the full OS X shell on it.

 

Thoughts?

I got past this - now it's giving me a kernel panic, talks about nvcard not recognized, etc.  I can still boot from USB.  I wish we could just copy settings from the USB stick and be done with it!

 

Edit:  For those of you that are wondering - I booted to recovery, mounted the main volume from the disk utility, dropped to shell, copied boot1h from the directory to a local drive/directory, dismounted the main volume, then ran the command.
