Won’t boot up - tried Recovery and does not find MacHD
Good morning,
The IMac is actually a late 2015 27 5K. I sold it to a friend 6 months ago and now it gives him the prohibit sign. I managed to eventually enter in recovery mode but there is no MacHD volume listed. I have run first aid on all the volumes and they cannot repair. I tried also to erase System to re-install and that didn’t work either. Tried to re-install Monterey but that stuck at 98 hrs for download and log message that it couldn’t find files? Is this the hard disc really dead or is it possible there is a corruption in the hard disk or should I try to boot up from an external ssd if I create it. I bought the studio and have Ventura installed but I can download the copy of Monterey from that Mac. Tried everything and am now grinding my teeth! Would really appreciate your advice. Thanks
