I think best a new post, for the notification purproses of it.
I tried the sudo installer and it created a working osx install usb for mac.
What can i do next?
Is what you said below here the next step of the alternative method?
I dont understand it fully the following that you said about efi partition. Wich EFI partition, from where to where, and how?
Below a screenshot of the usb that the sudo command created.

Okay.
Use EFI Mounter v3.1 (from our Downloads section) to mount the hidden EFI partition of your USB stick. To make sure you are mounting the correct one, use Disk Utility to identify the USB stick. Looking at your screengrab, Finder is covering-up the part of Disk Utility you need to look at. It will probably be Disk2 or something similar, and the main drive might be Disk2s2. In EFI Mounter v3.1 you will then see Disk2s1 which in this example would be the hidden EFI we need on your USB. stick.
Once you have mounted that, you will have an external drive named EFI on your desktop. Copy the El Capitan EFI folder you know is working, into this. You should then be able to boot from the USB Installer stick.
