To create a bootable flash drive you need a USB drive with a capacity of 8 gigabytes and a one cup of coffee

How to create a bootable macOS Mojave 10.14 USB install drive:

– Download the macOS Mojave files. You can download it from Mac App Store.

– Once you have your Mojave file all ready to go, close the installer that automatically pops up. You don’t want to be installing it just yet.

– Open a Finder window and head to Applications. Right-click on Install macOS 10.14 and select the Show Package Contents option.

– Open Contents > Resources. You’re going to need something from this sub-folder from here in a minute.

– Fire up Terminal either via Spotlight or from Applications > Utilities. Once open, type sudo followed by a space.

– Drag the createinstallmedia to that newly opened Terminal window.

– Now enter the following command, which will once again be followed by a space: –volume.

– Next up and back in Finder, select Go > Go To Folder. In here type /Volumes and click the Go button.

– Connect your USB drive and watch for it appearing in the Finder window.

– Drag the USB drive volume into the still open Terminal window.

– Press return, submitting the command that we just built via the magic of drag and drop.

– Type a y when prompted and hit return again.

– Go and make a coffee – this whole process can take around 30 minutes and will see the USB drive be erased before the installer is copied over.

After the flash drive is created – restart the Mac holding down the Option key, so you boot from the USB flash drive to begin installing the macOS Mojave.
