How to create a bootable macOS Mojave DMG file on Mac?
If you have a Mac and prefer making the bootable macOS Mojave DMG file yourself, you need to go through the following steps:
- Step 1: Download the full installer of macOS Mojave
- Step 2: Create a blank disk image and mount it
- Step 3: Make the macOS Mojave DMG bootable
- Step 4: Eject the macOS Mojave DMG file
Step 1: Download the full installer of macOS Mojave
To create the macOS Mojave DMG file, you must first acquire the full installer. Take these steps:
- Go to dosdude's Mojave page and download the macOS Mojave Patcher.
- Double-click the downloaded .dmg file to open it.
- Right-click on the macOS Mojave Patcher.app and select Open.
- When it asks you to confirm that you want to open the app, click Open.
- After the tool launches, select its active window, then click Tools > Download macOS Mojave from the top menu bar.
- Click Yes to proceed.
- Choose Applications on the left and click "Select Save Location."
- Wait while the download process is ongoing.
- After the download is complete, the installer will be added to your Applications folder, labeled "Install macOS Mojave."
Step 2: Create a blank disk image and mount
Now that you have the macOS Mojave full installer, it's time to prepare an empty disk image using the built-in Terminal app.
- Press Command + Space and type in "terminal" to launch the app.
- Input the following command and hit Enter.hdiutil create -o Mojave -size 6100m -volname Mojave -layout SPUD -fs HFS+JThis creates a new disk image file named "Mojave" with a size of 6100 megabytes, containing a single volume named "Mojave," using Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
- Mount the disk image with the command below.hdiutil attach Mojave.dmg -noverify -mountpoint /Volumes/Mojave
The disk image should now appear on your desktop with the name Mojave.
Step 3: Make the macOS Mojave DMG bootable
In this step, you'll need to run the command below in Terminal to create the bootable macOS Mojave DMG file. Ensure you're logged into your Mac with an admin account, as the command uses sudo.
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Mojave.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Mojave –nointeraction
When Terminal asks for your admin password, type it in and press Enter when you're finished. You may also need to type Y and hit Enter to confirm your action.
Step 5: Eject the macOS Mojave DMG file
Once the bootable DMG file is created, its disk name will be changed to "Install macOS Mojave," as you can see on the desktop. The actual file can be found in your user folder, accessible from Finder > Macintosh HD > Users > yourusername.
If you want to copy the file to a different drive, remember to eject the disk image on your desktop beforehand by right-clicking on it and selecting Eject.
