will not boot. Circle with a slash on a gray screen

[Blobsaw]

I am not very familiar with Mac comuters.

I have this IMac with High Sierra OS installed. I think it might have been erased.

Recovery image was deleted / erased. Simply not there.

No Backup. No time backup.

So any advice on how to get an image and boot disk or another how to.

Tried: Command,shift control, r. - Booted to disk utility. Thats it.

Any advice is appreciated. I do not have another Mac to dowload to. Maybe I can go to the Library if that is the only option. I do have solid window based units.

Thanks,

Kevin

You need internet recovery: Option-Command-R while booting

Hello.

I did try those commands and can get into internet recovery. But that's it. It cannot find an image to recover from.

I'm also experiencing a similar situation. Can anyone offer me some advice?
