Please correct me if I'm wrong......install....then run clover and copy over the efi folder from the USB to the efi of the Mac installed hard drive? And run Jake Lo's Dell Latitude/Inspiron/Precision - El Capitan Clover Guide

My CLOVER folder from the USB is this :.. CLOVER.zip

running the command shows the attached image

OK....that didn't work. I only have Boot Mac OS from Recovery HD - this shows an no entry sign & Boot Recovery. If the USB is installed, I have a new option which is to install again i'm guessing that its missing the command to boot from the Mac configured hd

my 4th install later this morning, i'll try the post setup here ( https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/8506-dell-latitude-inspiron-precision-el-capitan-clover-guide/&do=findComment&comment=54632 ) Instead of copying, I need to run clover again.......my bad ?

Had a really productive night last night, managed to create the right USB setup to install Sierra. After about 1 hour, the Latitude finally booted showed Sierra running in all it's glory. Remembering from when i got Yosemite running earlier this week, I needed to mount the EFI of both the USB drive and the internal hard drive. So i copied the clover directory from the USB over to the EFI on the hard drive....and rebooted I then get invalid partition again.......nevermind i thought......inserted the USB and requested a boot from that again. The only boot options (even after pressing F4) is boot from recovery or reinstall. Thinking that I've done something wrong, re-installed for the 2nd time......alll installed fine, did updated etc. Did the same again as per the instructions here :.. https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/7539-yosemite-installation-guide-latitude-e5440-intel-i5-clover-uefi/ Same again.......so after a 3rd time re-installed, I thought I'd reboot the mac from the USB (without copying clover over) & there is no option to boot from the internal hard drive. What am I missing (sorry for the long thread)

I've updated to A14 now. Seems to see the USB drive now.......got it working with Yosemite but now trying with Sierra. Do we have a working files

really struggling to get the newly created USB to be even seen by the E5440. It just boots from the hard drive or throws Invalid Portion Table ! What am I doing wrong ?
