UEFI boot from internal drive problem

Hello, everybody!

 

I've installed El Capitan on my notebook using Clover EFI method.

In BIOS I have this options:

  • UEFI Boot:                    Enabled
  • SATA Mode Selection:     AHCI

 

And for all external drives (USB) I have two boot options, e.g:

  • WD 3200BEV External1.75
  • UEFI: WD 3200BEV External1.75

For my internal SATA drive I have only "P0: ST9500325AS" option, so I can't boot from it to run El Capitan :(. If boot from installable USB, and then select proper entry in Clover - all works fine.

 

 

Please, help me to figure out if I can somehow boot from my SATA drive in UEFI mode?
Sorry for lame question/language.

Use the older Disk Utility in debug mode mount EFI on your installer and then EFI in your HDD and move the EFI from the installer to your EFI on your HDD http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/files/file/480-disk-utility-patched-v2/

Make sure you copy your installer EFI and delete replacing the one in the HDD

Thanks for your reply, but problem is not in EFI partition. My BIOS has UEFI options even for MBR/NTFS flash drives.

I've tried even to create custom boot entry with efibootmgr, and this entry even was visible from BIOS, buy selecting it didn't do anything.
