Now, that's out of the way, here is how to create a disk image for APFS and restore it:
- Boot Mojave from an external USB (CMD + Option)
- Open Terminal
- Unmount the disk (disk0 is the built-in disk):
- diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk0
- Create the image:
- hdiutil create -srcdevice /dev/disk0s2 -format UDZO /Volumes/100G/Macintosh_HD_Backup.dmg
- Scan the image
- asr imagescan --source /Volumes/100G/Macintosh_HD_Backup.dmg
- Restore the image
- asr restore --source /Volumes/100G/Macintosh_HD_Backup.dmg --target /dev/disk0s2 --erase
- When it asks to restore it to disk1, APFS, say 'y'.
