Create dmg file on macOS 10.14 that can be opened on macOS 10.11
Domanda
Running
$ hdiutil create -size <size>b <.dmg-file> -srcfolder <directory> -ov -format UDBZ
on macOS 10.14 creates a dmg file that can't be opened on macOS 10.11. Is there an option that creates the dmg file that way that it can be used on macOS 10.11?
Soluzione
If the source folder is in a APFS volume, then by default a APFS volume will be created in the dmg file. This type of volume can not be read by El Capitan. The solution would be to create a dmg file which uses JHFS+ format. The correct command you should be using is given below.
hdiutil create -size <size>b -fs JHFS+ <.dmg-file> -srcfolder <directory> -ov -format UDBZ
Note: When testing this answer, I used the
-megabytes
option instead of the-size
option. Also, I tested while running High Sierra instead of Mojave.
