iMac 2010 wont start base OS since I wiped the hardrive
About to sell the iMac and I wiped the Disk. Now I went to turn it on but it wont download the OS that it started with. Do I need to buy a new OS or can I restore it?

How To Do A Factory Reset
Selection A should be used on computers that came with Lion or later when factory new. These models had no disks included when new. Selection B is for Macs that came originally with Snow Leopard or earlier. These models shipped with Software Restore disks when new.
A. Factory reset of your Mac - Apple Support
B. Factory Reset Your Pre-Lion Mac
Follow these instructions until you get to Step 5 of Factory reset of your Mac - Apple Support. At Step 5 you will need a Snow Leopard DVD or the installer disc that came with the computer.
That would work but it says the disk is locked
