Hey! You're dealing with a MacBook Air from 2011 that needs a fresh start. Since the hard drive was wiped, you can reinstall macOS Lion using the boot menu. If it still can't find components, try connecting it via USB to see if it boots normally. If that doesn’t work, you might need to use a USB drive with a different OS or perform a more advanced recovery. Just be careful with data backups!

The device must have an internet connection to function properly.

Apologies, I missed adding that note—it includes an active web connection. I can access the webpage now and everything functions properly.

Hello. A similar issue occurred with your MacBook Air recently, displaying an error at the end of the installation. Using a bootable USB resolved the problem.

Used a specific method for USB setup and installed the OS accordingly.

To build a bootable pendrive, you'll need another functional Mac. Do you have one? If yes, follow the link provided—https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT201372. If not, consider using the alternative method described at https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT201314.
