Hi, I'm not new to Hackintoshes (built a stable desktop Hackintosh in early 2013 that I used and successfully upgraded OS X versions on till late 2014), but today I tried to install El Capitan on that same desktop via a clean install. I used the latest versions of Unibeast and Multibeast. However, I can't get into OS X without the Unibeast USB flash drive. I tried mounting the EFI partition on my SSD (my only internal drive), which was empty, so I copied into it the files and folders that appeared on my SSD after I ran the Clover .pkg installer. Still no luck. Anyway, long story short, I think one clue as to why it is not working is that in Clover Boot Options, there is only one entry, the USB flash drive; most of the articles and posts that I've read related to this issue mention selecting the Clover Boot Option entry with "SATA" in the description. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I've been working on this for hours, and still haven't gotten it to work.

Using a MSI Z77MA-G45 motherboard and Intel Core i7-3770K CPU.

Edit: added system information
