I am trying to install macOSSierra on my Fedora 27 machine, but hdiutil does not exist. Do you have a solution for it?

$ ./prepare-iso.sh 
./prepare-iso.sh: line 143: hdiutil: command not found
xargs: hdiutil: No such file or directory
Could not find installer for Yosemite (10.10), El Capitan (10.11) or Sierra (10.12).

I ran in to this problem too and I suspect the script was written for BASH on Darwin Unix only.

Yeah, this script is only meant for macOS / Darwin... there are a lot of little bits that will break on Linux/non-macOS environments. Technically you could build the iso on a Mac then move it to a non-Mac... but that is untested, technically outside the scope of the macOS license, and unsupported by this project ;)
