So, is there an idea left except for either choose another OS to write the disk, use dd (also not working on BigSur <=11.6), use a more or less trustworthy dropbox program from an unknown source, or use balena etcher?

I like the libreelec creator because of its simplicity, therefore would appreciate to know about the root cause. Even if I allow full disk access using the sec settings, this setguid() error pops up.
