That installation thing is saying no installation candidate. Package grub-efi not available but is referred by another package. This may mean that the package is missing has been obsoleted or is only available from another source. However the following packages replace it grub-common grub-efi-ia32-bin grub-efi-ia32
I just did a specific reply to a post below and realised there were loads of people who can't see the EFI system partition so thought I'd write one that everyone might see. So took me a while, but I had the same problem and it turned out that it was because my machine is 11 years old and it has a bios not a uefi (the modern equivalent of a bios). After much faffing about and reformatting usb hdd and stick using diskpart it turned out all I needed to do was to have a standard windows formatted drive. fat32 worked, but I don't think that matters as the installation process reformats it anyway and then when you get the that part in the zorin installation process just skip the efi system partition part and make one primary partition for the full disk with the option /. This worked for me and I now have a fully functional zorin installation on my usb HDD. Even off my relatively slow USB HDD it's still a lot faster to use than Windows 10. HTH
How do you disable TPM, my Zorin 17 lite ISO boot is set to MBR Legacy. My other USB needs two partition one to boot or not. I've set my bios to boot USB first?
I can understand my external drive but why the names r so weird like in windows it shows something else, on this installation it shows asmt 2335 , from storage space I know which one it is

can i just run without do a setting you give after installation ? i mean, after rebooting, i will go to boot manager (in my pc, i just need to type "Esc" button) and chose the flashdisk that contain the full installed Zorin OS, like when we try to live boot the zorin os installation created by rufus. i want my flashdisk to be a portable os that can run in any pc/laptop righaway after i plug it in.
Hey there. need some help plz. when i follow the steps, after its asks me about WiFI in the installer, it says to disable Intel RST. what is this and should i do it?
I tried to change the time zone n it said can't change kernel something n then again starting from choose SOMETHING ELSE BUT THEN it doesn't work for new partition table
Many thanks for great video. I have been using an usb persistent Zorin 16 produced with your instructions for over 6 months BUT due to a mistake I needed to reload using Zorin 17 download. Basically followed your video again but when installation completed it didn't give me the option to "Continue Testing". However all seems to work perfectly when I reboot. Perhaps an update would be useful to others? Just as an aside the reason I am using a persistent usb is that I have a Lenovo Ideapad with MMC on board which failed (just after warranty ranout!) and this allows me to make good use of what is otherwise quite a good netbook!
Great video. It's really too bad linux developers simply can't set up installation to include fixing the EFI entries automatically. This is one of several reasons why linux OS will never replace Windows. The average computer user simply does not have the aptitude or interest to want to make the necessary changes. Oh well, I'm going to since have both abilities mentioned.
For ex. I always have ghost boot entries as remains of distro hoping. I know how to get into EFI partition and delete it but for less experienced user it should be done automatically.
Please help When I am trying to create partitions there is no option called efi system partition. I am trying install zorin on a external hdd What should I do
Hi. I had the same problem. Turns out it's because my machine is 11 years old so I have a bios not uefi (the modern equivalent). I just formatted the drive as mbr with a primary partition using diskpart and then just used the primary / during the install. Worked for me.

How do you disable TPM, my Zorin 17 lite ISO boot is set to MBR Legacy. My other USB needs two partition one to boot or not. I've set my bios to boot USB first?
Can't you just install it on the external drive without going to 'something else' and messing with partitions? I don't see the reason for the extra steps when the automatic install should work just select the correct drive to install it to?
It did not work on my side. You would need to fix the EFI partition afterwards. Otherwise the external drive will only boot on the same machine, if it boots at all..
I've heard do Not create a partition on either drives, since boot load can crash when windows updates etc. I've got two Hard drives, each 500 GB. So maybe install Zorin OS directly on a 32 USB stick acting like a hard drive. But I will still need my 8 USB stick to bootable ISO too? Hum. I'm using MBR Legacy Bios.

I have never had to use two media sources to install any Linux os. I burn it, run live, then install--all from the same media source. Zorin should be no different.
This is exactly what I'm doing. Burning/flashing on the first USB drive (this is the live drive), then install-all from the live USB drive to the second (this is the full Zorin OS like you would have on a hard disk, but instead it's on a USB drive).

Try fat32 instead of efi partition. Maybe they updated the installer or your system does not support UEFI
