Hi man, how's it going?

Thanks for bringing up the issue.

 

If 

1. Download the new ZIP file again from the site because I uploaded new DMG files couple of days ago

2. Try this: Open System Settings > Privacy & Security and  scroll down to Security and see if Gatekeeper is blocking the DMG or Bootabler or Sparkle.framework.

 

Didn't work you can open Terminal and use xttar command to exclude Bootabler.app from being flagged by Gatekeeper by using the following command:

 

xattr -d -r com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Bootabler.app

 

Copy/Paste the command above in terminal and drag the Bootabler.app to the terminal window and press enter.

 

I hope this resolves the issue for you.

Btw, what's the difference between 

xattr -d -r com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Bootabler.app

and the one I usually use and it works?

xattr -c /Applications/Bootabler.app

How are you doing man?

You're not gonna need either, I fixed the certificate issue and the DMG and the app should work ok, just have to right click on the DMG and click Open (maybe twice) and same for the app.

To answer your question

(-d) deletes the xattr attr_name.

(-c) deletes (clears) all xattrs.

and (-r) is to act recursively

Hi bud, I just tried to create Tahoe bootable usb. 

After 3 minutes it say it's done but the usb is empty.

Is it just me or? Running Version 1.4 (3.3)

Hey bud,

I just tested the app creating bootable USB disk for Tahoe 26.0 and it went all the way to the end, it works just fine on my end, I used an external SSD for the test.

I will test a USB flash drive next and see if it get's interrupted.

I double checked again and it looks like the Tahoe app was corrupted. 

It worked like  a charm after redownloading the pkg.
