So instead of editing the file directly, like we did with Chameleon/Chimera, we recommend that you download the free Clover Configurator app instead. However, Clover's file may be a little bit harder to work with, depending on your particular setup.

Clover's settings rely on a similar text file called "ist." Traditionally, you could permanently enable certain boot flags by adding them to the text file "," which was essentially the settings file for Chameleon/Chimera. This process is also a bit more involved in Clover, compared to Chameleon/Chimera.

All Hackintosh installation methods for El Capitan, including tonymacx86's ever-popular Unibeast method, now use Clover. While we've already previously discussed how to use boot flags on the Chameleon and Chimera bootloaders, which were formally the two most popular bootloaders for PCs running Mac OS X, the release of OS X El Capitan has now shifted attention onto the new and upcoming Clover bootloader.
