I erased my harddisk on macbook pro but now I can't reinstall macOS Monterey. I followed the steps, but it either comes up with a folder with '?' or globe with '!'. Tried all the steps suggested in 'support.apple.com/mac/startup but it still shows globe with '!'. What should I do?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.0

Two Things...
I. Go here: If your Mac Starts Up to a Question Mark - Apple Support
II. Mount the Drive:
Boot into Recovery Mode. Then, using Disk Utility, see if the Hard Drive is seen. If it is, then see if you need to click the “Mount’ button for it. Try rebooting once more. If of no success, then click unmount button, and then the mount button. Try rebooting once more.
How to Get to Recover Mode:
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Please see: How to reinstall macOS - Apple Support. When you are starting up into Recovery Mode, use Option-Command-R for Internet Recovery.
