disk & erased Mac?
I am selling my 2015 MacBook Air so I went to a fun little apple site that told me to log out of iTunes, iMessage and iCloud - and then to startup in recovery mode. Once I did this, it told me to erase my disk - and then I'd be ready to sell my Mac! well, now when it turns on it has no operating system. I turned it back on to re-install Ventura but it gets all the way downloaded and then says there is an error. I clicked on disk utility and there is a "AppleAPFSMedia" and underneath a MacOS, Preboot, recovery, update and VM. Also, an Apple SSD SM...... and disk images OS X Base...." the reboot, recovery and VM are greyed out, so I read somewhere to click "mount" on those and they stop being greyed out...BUT all the first aid on them fail besides "apple SSD SM02...." and if I click out and try to install MacOS again it still fails.
WTF is going on? I literally just wanted to erase my data so I can sell this Mac. Not break it! Please help.
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.6
