Greetings & thank you.
I downloaded Big Sur OS onto my MBP and quit the installed as suggested. My Flash drive is formatted and ready to go. But the instructions do not explain what to do next with the downloaded OS??? Do I drag onto the USB Flash to create the boot disk? HELP!
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.4
Make certain the USB Drive is at least 16 GB and Formatted as HFS Journaled with the GUID Partition Map with the Drive Named Untitled for the Terminal command below >>
Big Sur via Terminal
sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Big\ Sur.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled
Notation - in above instructions Untitled matches the Untitled in the terminal command to create the Bootable Installer of Big Sur

What next after downloading Mac OS Big Sur?
