Get macOS Installer with gibMacOS

Downloading the installer files fairly straight forward process but may take a while depending on your internet speeds.
To start extract gibMacOS and and open your terminal change directory to the gibmacos.command script.
Run it with ./gibMacOS.command
This will allow you to choose the macOS version to download.

In my case I chose option 1. It will download the macOS installer files.
Make sure that BaseSystem.dmg is downloaded completely thats what we will use to create the installer
Once downloaded you can proceed to the next step.

Creating the macOS Install USB

Find BaseSystem.dmg inside /gibMacOS-master/macOS Downloads/publicrelease/
Drag it to your desktop or somewhere else if you prefer.
Open your terminal and change directory to where the BaseSystem.dmg file is in my case:
cd Desktop
Then run dmg2img BaseSystem.dmg base.iso it will convert the the dmg file to iso file named base.iso
Open Disks AKA 'Gnome-Disk-Disk-Utility' and drag base.iso to it and hit start restoring.This will take a wile.

Open

Once it is done restoring the iso open up Gparted and select your usb-drive.

Rigth click in the unallocated space hit new

In File system select fat32 and in lable type EFI

Hit apply

Once done applying changes righ click on your new EFI partition and hit Manage Flags

Select boot and esp

Now whe need to mount the EFI partition
The easiest way is to open up Disks again and mount it that way

Now you should see an empty EFI partition in your file system
