Activation Lock
I erased all content from a MacBook Air that belongs to the agency I work for. We are going to sell some older MACs to employees. I was getting it ready to sell so I erased contents choosing, erase data from HD. Now when I boot the computer up, I get the round circle with an explanation point and the words support.apple.com./mac/startup -1008f. I have tried booting the computer while holding down command and R keys and some other key combinations I found in the article for apple support. The laptop is associated with an icloud account of someone that no longer works with us. I either cannot get past the activation lock or cannot get the computer to boot up with an OS. I am at a loss of what to do at this point.
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.2
