I can't upgrade to El capitan

Hello. I have an imac late 2009. OK its old but I used to run high Sierra. Few days ago I changed hard disk and the service team installed Yosemite. I tried to upgrade to capitan but the installation process can't finish. Says that there is no packet for installation. After that I have to restart again and again without any results. How can I go to Yosemite again?

If the mac is caught in this installation loop, you may have to boot to your Recovery HD (Restart and press and hold the Command and R keys). Open Disk Utility and run Verify on the Disk.

You may have to reinstall the OS from the Recovery Servers, make sure the mac is connected to your router

using a cable rather than rely on WiFi.

Either that or take it back to the service team.
