I can't install Sonoma on my MacBook Air

I've really fixed it good now. I made a bootable usb of catalina because its the latest macOS that my macbook pro will take. I got into internet recovery, attempted to install catalina, after failing to make it work via all of your suggestions as well as at least teen other methods suggested in the apple forums. Anyway, it acted as if it was going to install catalina, but it crashed, rebooted into internet recovery yet again. Now, it won't even go into internet recovery. It shows via the timer that after it gets to one minute, instead of booting up recovery, it reboots, into a black screen. I left it hoping that it would eventually reboot into the recovery mode. I turned it off and attempted at least fifteen times, but it just kept rebooting to the loading recovery screen and then to black screen.

I have checked my internet connection and I have a 50 meg download and 11 up. I checked the keyboard, and all keys work fine. They were all working a few days ago when I had macOS Mojave on it, before attempting to update to Sonoma. I don't know for sure, but I'm thinking that in the beginning, after sonoma failure, I may have erased the base system, which I believe also contains the recovery partition.
