macos-bootable-usb

Combination of some codes and applications to create macOS installation media outside Mac app store.
Thanks me later :3

Motivation

Honestly, the main reason is I've limited Internet. I can't download the whole 8GB, 12GB at one stroke. So, I've to download multiple times and MAS doesn't support it. Moreover, I want to save downloaded installer so that I can use them next time. That's why I made this script.

How to Use

it's still in beta. Simply just run the script, answer the question and go!

DISK SELECTION information can be found in diskutil > table > Device. In this example disk3. So, TARGET_DISK become /dev/disk3.

$ curl -LO https://github.com/heinthanth/macos-bootable-usb/releases/latest/download/macos-booable-usb-creator.sh
$ ./creator.sh

Optionally, you can verify the script with this command.

$ curl -LO https://github.com/heinthanth/macos-bootable-usb/releases/latest/download/SHASUM
$ shasum creator.sh -c SHASUM

Moreover, if you don't trust SHASUM file, go check with gpg

$ curl -LO https://github.com/heinthanth/macos-bootable-usb/releases/latest/download/SHASUM
$ curl -LO https://github.com/heinthanth/macos-bootable-usb/releases/latest/download/SHASUM.gpg
$ gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 46D4B29338EE5105BCA79A142E1082FBF9CB91E9
$ gpg --verify SHASUM.gpg SHASUM
