Reinstalling macos on Mac Book

Hi there,


I have erased my Macintosh HD and try to reinstall macOS Big Sur but at the stage of choosing disk to install, nothing shows up for me to choose.


Can you please help?


Thank you

Mount the Drive:

Boot into Recovery Mode (Intel or Silicon) . Then, using Disk Utility, see if the Hard Drive is seem. 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.
