| TARGET="/Volumes/Macintosh HD" # Specify where to configure Recovery partition | |
| MACOS_INSTALLER="/Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app" # Path to your macOS installer | |
| # Remaining paths ahead are dependant on OS version | |
| # This *should* support 10.9 and above but is only tested on 10.12 | |

Note: this should be ran from other computer agains the target, or from external disk boot. Read article https://davidjb.com/blog/2016/12/creating-a-macos-recovery-partition-without-reinstalling-osx-or-re-running-your-installer/
