It's very easy to create a bootable ISO image of El Capitan, if you have aworking El Capitan system installed on your machine.

Start with going to AppStore and installing El Capitan, so you'll have anapplication named Install El Capitan in your Application list. Then, youshould follow the steps below.

There is an installation image file inside /Applications/Install El Capitan.app, named InstallESD.dmg. It's not a bootable ISO that can be usedto install the system on a virtual machine, but we'll get there. Mount thisimage to some directory by using the hdiutil tool:

The -noverify and -nobrowse options are there to make mounting operationfaster and to make sure that Finder will not automatically pop up.

Now let's create a placeholder image of our ISO file.

This can take a while.

After an empty ISO file will be created, we need to mount it:

Then, we will use asr tool to populate the contents of our new drive:

The asr tool will automatically create a new mountpoint, /Volumes/OS X Base System. We're going to put some files into this directory.

First of all, remove an invalid link that won't be needed here: 2014 flagstaff mac pop up camper manualdwnloadblock.

Instead of this link, we need a proper directory, full of package files. We'regoing to copy this directory from the ESD image that we have mounted few stepsearlier.

We're going to copy some additional installer dependencies as well.

After that, we can unmount stuff we don't need anymore:

Last step is to convert our ISO file into the UDTO format.

Done. The ElCapitan3.iso.cdr can be renamed to ElCapitan.iso, and can beused in virtualization software like VirtualBox 5.

These advanced steps are primarily for system administrators and others who are familiar with the command line. You don't need a bootable installer to upgrade macOS or reinstall macOS, but it can be useful when you want to install on multiple computers without downloading the installer each time.

What you need to create a bootable installer

• A USB flash drive or other secondary volume, formatted as Mac OS Extended, with at least 12GB of available storage
• A downloaded installer for macOS Big Sur, Catalina, Mojave, High Sierra, or El Capitan

Download macOS

• Download: macOS Big Sur, macOS Catalina, macOS Mojave, or macOS High Sierra
  These download to your Applications folder as an app named Install macOS [version name]. If the installer opens after downloading, quit it without continuing installation. To get the correct installer, download from a Mac that is using macOS Sierra 10.12.5 or later, or El Capitan 10.11.6. Enterprise administrators, please download from Apple, not a locally hosted software-update server.
• Download: OS X El Capitan
  This downloads as a disk image named InstallMacOSX.dmg. On a Mac that is compatible with El Capitan, open the disk image and run the installer within, named InstallMacOSX.pkg. It installs an app named Install OS X El Capitan into your Applications folder. You will create the bootable installer from this app, not from the disk image or .pkg installer.

Use the 'createinstallmedia' command in Terminal

1. Connect the USB flash drive or other volume that you're using for the bootable installer.
2. Open Terminal, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.
3. Type or paste one of the following commands in Terminal. These assume that the installer is in your Applications folder, and MyVolume is the name of the USB flash drive or other volume you're using. If it has a different name, replace MyVolume in these commands with the name of your volume.

Big Sur:*

Catalina:*

Mojave:*

High Sierra:*

El Capitan:

* If your Mac is using macOS Sierra or earlier, include the --applicationpath argument and installer path, similar to the way this is done in the command for El Capitan.

2. When prompted, type your administrator password and press Return again. Terminal doesn't show any characters as you type your password.
3. When prompted, type Y to confirm that you want to erase the volume, then press Return. Terminal shows the progress as the volume is erased.
4. After the volume is erased, you may see an alert that Terminal would like to access files on a removable volume. Click OK to allow the copy to proceed.
5. When Terminal says that it's done, the volume will have the same name as the installer you downloaded, such as Install macOS Big Sur. You can now quit Terminal and eject the volume.
