I just got a Max pro 2020 M1 today and it was stuck at computer account creation, tried so many methods, didn’t work. I mistakenly deleted my Macintosh startup disc and partitioned the available disc to reinstall MacOS(I haven’t reinstalled MacOs yet) now computer says to support.Apple.com/Mac/restore. What do I do please?

follow the on screen instructions if possible. M1's can't be dealt with using Intel methods. I do not have an M1, so no personal experience, but hopefully these will be of help:
