I need your Help (Mac Mini)

[ilan]

hi,

i had some issues with my mac mini so i decided to restore everything
i don't know how but accidently i deleted all disks except of the OS X Base System Disk
so when i restart (command + r) i only see the recovery disk and not macintosh HD
and i cannot install any os on the recovery disk

how can i get back the macintosh HD so i can install the OS on it???

i am very frustrated, i could not find anything helpful in the internet
please, can someone help me?

Don't have a Mac but I read it must be connected to the Internet (LAN) to recover (it downloads all files). Is it?

Thanx @KMatle but the internet recovery didnot worked. Because you need to have a not writeprotected disk to be able to install on it an OS.

And i deleted the macintosh hd so only base os (that is write protected) is left. And creating a new image or disk doesnot work.

But after 5 hours and maybe 20 reboots and lot of trying a new disk appeared and i could install the os on it.

Anyway thank you for your help.

EDIT: now i can code again (b4i)
