IIRC, however you get the older installer, you still have to run it as an app under the current OS, and it just says the installer is too old to run as an application. If you try via reboot with the Option key held down, you get into recovery mode, but I don’t think I had any success in proceeding with either download or installation of an older OS.

There may well be a way of going backwards from 10.11, but I also got frustrated and gave up before I found it.

If you plan(ned) ahead, the best solution is(would have been) to keeping working bootable external disks for each OS version. I didn’t.
