The error code 1008F typically indicates that your Mac tried unsuccessfully to start up from macOS Recovery over the internet. Here are a few potential solutions:
Start Up Using Option-Command-R: Press and hold the power button on your Mac for up to 10 seconds, until your Mac turns off. Then, turn on your Mac and immediately press and hold Option-Command-R to start up from the latest version of macOS Recovery. Don’t use Shift-Option-Command-R, because your Mac will start up from an earlier version of macOS Recovery and the error may occur again.
Disable Activation Lock: If Activation Lock is enabled, it could be preventing you from starting up from macOS Recovery. You can learn how to disable Activation Lock from Apple’s support website. After disabling Activation Lock, you should be able to start up from macOS Recovery without a 1008F error. When you’re done using macOS Recovery, you can enable Activation Lock again.
If these steps don’t resolve the issue, it might be best to contact Apple Support directly for further assistance.
I hope this will help you. You can check this video focusing on exact your problem as well
