macOS Sonoma (version 14.x) is Apple’s desktop operating system released in September 2023. Unlike Windows or Linux, Apple does not distribute macOS as an ISO file. The term “ISO de Mac OS Sonoma” is a misnomer; macOS is distributed via the App Store as an .app installer bundle or a .dmg disk image.
Result: A bootable ISO ~9 GB, usable in VMware/VirtualBox on Mac, Windows, or Linux. This ISO will not boot on real Macs unless you restore it to USB – Apple’s hardware expects a different partition layout. 5.
