My mac has decided to finally give up on me but I'm refusing to let it.

Basically I have been left needing to reinstall my OS, yet I can't find a disk to install on. Already verified the disk and it says everything is fine.

The photo is as far as I can get in reinstalling my OS

What does disk utility look like?

It's looks like it can only see the recovery partition, I think your hard drive is just fucked. What mac is it? It may be easily replaceable depending on how old it is.

You can also use an external drive as a boot disk if you have one lying around.
