What steps did you perform to complete your task? (Please don't include a series of steps that includes rain dancing... From experience, we have found rain dancing produces random results. And, water and electronics don't mix well together.)
Hi, Don. Thanks for getting back to me.
I have a drive which I use to install macOS 10.14 containing an HFS+ volume and a FAT32, custom EFI volume. I have an image of that installer drive which I'd like to restore onto a USB drive. I was able to accomplish a partial restore by using Disk Utility on my Mac to format and partition the USB drive. I then manually restored the HFS+ volume from the disk image, but received an error when trying to restore the FAT32 volume saying the volume couldn't be repartitioned. And that's as far as I've been able to get.
Using dd only restores the HFS+ volume and seems to ignore the FAT32 volume.
I'd like to use the command line to do a byte-for-byte restore of the image to the disk to accomplish my goal in one step, but I haven't been successful in finding such a method.
Let me know if you need more information. Thanks!
