Hi, I'm trying to clean install Monterey to MacBook Pro intel. I made installer prepared in USB. Now in recovery mode, I cannot start the installer. I used the command "open", but denied as "command not found". Is there any way I can install in this set up?
Thank you for your help,

Here are some steps that may help.
If you have a MacBook Pro from 2017 or earlier:
If you have a MacBook Pro with the Apple T2 Security Chip:
If you are offered an older version of macOS, install that version, set up your Mac, and then upgrade to macOS Monterey.

Thanks for the comment. The installer could be selected and started the installation, but failed during the process, then turned to "Mac starts up to a circle with a line through it"...
Maybe my USB installer was not prepared properly...
In the recovery mode, there are options such as "re-install macOS Big Sur"; I will try that and then update to Monterey. I was hoping I could install Monterey at once, but...
Thank you!
I know of no such way. You need to make a bootable installer and boot from that ans install macOS from that boot up.
