You'll have to create a bootable SD card with the operating system of your choosing. Then, disable your eMMC, boot to the SD card, re-enable the eMMC, wipe it, and install new OS.
Recommend opening the PBP 90° and hang the display over the end of a table to do the eMMC disable/re-enable process. Either assemble the bottom, or only pick up the PBP by the display half when it's disassembled. Handling it by the keyboard half with the bottom cover removed will surely cause damage.
thank you for the prompt reply i was able to get the PBP to work again but just repeating the steps with different sd cards using different flashers what ended up working was when i used my raspberrypi 4 and flashed manjaro using raspberry pi imager now im running off the emmc after using the manjaro flashing tool.
