I reinstall Mojave because I have issues with APFS and CLOVER, now everything works fine after installing it with patched installer on MBR HFS+ but I dont know how to install CLOVER on this partition. It create EFI folder but not EFI partition. I read this:

https://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Installation#manual-installation_osx_installation-on-an-hfs-partition_mbr-sector-installation

but when I type cd BootSectors it sayts that there is not such a directory. Can somebody help me with the configuration to make COLOVER bootable from my drive!

No, clover does not create an ESP. There is no ESP on an MBR partition map disk, you need to have a hybrid GPT disk in order to legacy boot from the ESP. You just want to use the installer, do not choose install Clover to the ESP, but choose Boot Sectors > Install boot0af in MBR and Clover for BIOS (legacy) booting > Clover EFI 64-bits SATA.

 

EDIT: Also make sure that Clover for UEFI booting only is unchecked first. And you probably want Install RC scripts to target volume. You then may want optional RC scripts or the preference pane, they are optional though.

Thank you guys I installed it with these settings and it works now! I install it without ESP option, and yes, there is no EFI partition, just EFI folder with CLOVER in it where i copy my kext and config files, restart and voila - PC boot to CLOVER and everything works!
