With a lot of excellent help from Perplexity.ai I figured to disable Secure Boot and went on to do a successful full install of Zorin on a brand new inexpensive laptop that uses UFS storage. Alas, the bad news is, upon restart I ended up with a too-familiar command screen showing (Intramfs), or something very close to that. I'm not a computer person so easy on the computer jargon please.
This usually means that a critical system file was corrupted during install.
Keeping Secure Boot off and also ensuring you are set to AHCI (not RAID) in BIOS settings while you are there, you could either perform a fresh install or in the LiveUSB, run fsck which is File System ChecK on the drive you installed Zorin OS to.
