I formatted my hard disk in internet recovery (disk utility) but it had a partition so I can't boot into the main disk all I see is APPLE SSD HTA..e.t.c which is 60 gb and I can't see the main partition in disk utility plus I have no startup disk. Terminal's sudo command is also not working, is there anything I can do to gain root and erase all partitions?..it is still in recovery mode

I'm the pied piper

Used Internet Recovery ⌘ Command⌥ OptionR and it worked fine. If you're interested you can buy a Apple technician's disk and boot from it or buy a new Mac or do something simpler like installing Deb on a Mac with a damaged boot partition.

    Where would one find the "Apple technician's disk" to purchase.? "Just buy a new Mac" is quite an expensive fix. Finally, why would installing Debian Linux be simpler to fix a damaged boot partition? – Allan Aug 01 '20 at 22:41
