Hello I followed a macOS guide for creating an usb with macOS 10.14 (Mojave)

Everything was fine until end but when the bar of copying files reached 100% I've got an error

Erasing disk: 0%... 10%... 20%... 30%... 100%

Failed to copy boot file: “prelinkedkernel” couldn’t be copied to “PrelinkedKernels”.

The bless of the installer disk failed.

I'd appreciate any help

Can you verify the USB flash drive is formatted as GUID/extended journaled (HFS+)

How to create a bootable installer for macOS - Apple Support

Try a different brand USBflash drive and test your createinstallmedia command, see if it makes a difference.

Is the drive plugged directly into the Mac or via a Hub. I've had it fail (for other reasons) when I had the drive plugged into a USB hub but works when directly connected. Maybe just a coincidence, though.

Have you tried to re-download the full Mojave installer (the several GB full installer, not the small stub installer)?
