I just read:


The createinstallmedia command will fail with the new Sierra installer. Some code is munged somewhere. As a workaround, do an actual installation to your flash drive, then just copy the new installer to that drive's Applications folder. At least you can boot and get Sierra installed to an otherwise unbootable drive (or reinstalled over an earlier installation nondestructively).

it is only affecting the new macOS Sierra Installer? or it is affecting all the new installers for macOS High Sierra and Mojave?

Thanks
Came

It only is a problem for the new Sierra installer. The new installers for macOS High Sierra and Mojave work normally with createinstallmedia.
