fdisk has been deprecated for quite a long time, I think parted is the
preferred command line tool now.

Even to the extent that it works, it’d only support MBR partitioning, and you 
almost certainly want GPT for a macOS boot image.

…and then “bootable” flags go out the window anyway, because EFI doesn’t care 
about that.
fdisk has been updated:
  # fdisk /dev/sdb

  Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.23.2).

  Command action

    g   create a new empty GPT partition table
  ...

How good it is, I leave to others.
