Disk not showing in recovery mode

Hello, I have a MacBook Air 2013 13 inch Retina display, and I’ve been installing windows and different Linux distros in it and after I installed Linux mint on it I tried to install macOS 10.8.5 but the disk is not showing in disk utility neither in diskutil list, i’ve tried to use Big Sur recovery screen but the disk still doesn’t show there either. I’ve reset smc and vram but it still doesn’t show it still.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.5
