It would be nice if this tool worked on those OS'es ;)

Just thought I should give you a heads-up: if I attempt to run a pre-M1 createInstallMedia on my M1 Mac running Monterey, I'm greeted with the response of: "Killed: 9".

This breaks pretty much every conversion script out there that depends on createInstallMedia, including yours. So a new requirement of createInstallMedia appears to be that you're running an x86 version of macOS.

I wonder if https://gist.github.com/julianxhokaxhiu/6ed6853f3223d0dd5fdffc4799b3a877 could be updated to work for any OS from Mountain Lion through Big Sur without a dependency on createInstallMedia?

Lion, of course, works just by copying the InstallESD.dmg.

it is not possible to use this newer version of the macOS Sierra installer application.

It's possible to use the updated macOS Sierra installer's createinstallmedia after making a simple modification: change the installer's version number back to 12.6.03 by running sudo plutil -replace CFBundleShortVersionString -string "12.6.03" /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app/Contents/Info.plist.

More info at this post.

So when I run "sudo ~/bin/createinstalliso --isodirectory ~/Desktop/ --applicationpath ~/Desktop/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/", I get:

Making disk image bootable...
The bless of the installer disk image failed.

I tried "codesign --remove-signature ~/bin/createInstalliso" and also running through rosetta to no avail.

It probably is the certification error but how do I get past it?

Fail !
sudo /path/createinstalliso --isodirectory ~/Desktop/ --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app/
password:
/Applications/Install macOS Sierra.app/ contains a broken 'createinstallmedia' command.
Fail!
