I have a late 2020 M1 MacBook Pro running MacOS 15.5.
This morning I plugged in a USB C hub with 2 external drives plugged into it. One drive would not moun, not even using Disk Utilitie. I shut down the computer and unplugged the hub. When I tried to reboot the computer it shows a circle with an ! In it. After going to the website on the screen, it seems the Firmware has been corrupted.
iI understand that I need another Mac to revive or restore the firmware.
I live in an assisted living facility and nobody here has a Mac.
My question is is there a way to get this computer to boot without another Mac?
Thank you for any suggestions
