Hackintosh Mac Os Mojave Download
On the new Hackintosh, go to the web browser and download MountEFI. This is the same program you used before, if you created the installer on a mac. After clicking the link, click the "Code" button, then "Download ZIP".
When this article is written, the new macOS Catalina 10.15.4 is available. And I am running macOS Catalina on my laptop. So basically, I cannot download macOS Mojave from my Catalina Hackintosh using AppStore. Well, I was planning to install macOS Mojave on my VMware on Windows PC. Fortunately, there is a way to download the macOS Mojave installation file and then convert it into an ISO file.
Before proceeding to downloading and installing the Mac OS Mojave 10.14.1 on your computer, backup all your data. It is important to do so because installing the OS without a backup can sometimes cause data loss and to be safe, backing up files on your system is important.
macOS Mojave has two types of installation format. One is via Install Mojave App where you can directly download from Mac App Store. This option is not available on Mac with a new version of macOS that is newer than Mojave.
The other installation media is via Mojave dmg file, which contacts all the files and boot information for installing macOS Mojave in a compressed structure. However, you need to burn dmg to USB first before it is used as a bootable media. Now, you can download macOS Mojave DMG file the following resources:
You have completed the preparation process in above steps and it is time to create a bootable Mojave USB installer from the download dmg file. Unfortunately, the USB would be bootable if just simply copying the dmg file to USB drive without additional actions because the booting code is not written to USB via file copy. Instead, you should use third-party software to help you create a macOS Mojave USB drive from DMG file.
USB Not Showing up in Startup Manager: If the USB drive burned with DMG Editor did not show up in Startup Manager, it means the burning process failed. The most possible reason is that the dmg file was corrupted, you need to download it from another source and burn it again.
To start we'll want to grab ourselves a copy of macOS. You can skip this and head to formatting the USB if you're just making a bootable OpenCore stick and not an installer. For everyone else, you can either download macOS from the App Store or with Munki's script.
From a macOS machine that meets the requirements of the OS version you want to install, go directly to the App Store and download the desired OS release and continue to Setting up the installer.
From here, jump to Setting up the installer to finish your work. If you want to check the integrity of your download, you can check this repository of checksums (opens new window), although do note that these are crowdsourced checksums and may not be a reliable way to check for authenticity. 2ff7e9595c
