Downloading zorin os pro error

Hi guy's i was hoping that anyone could help me with this problem that im having installing zorin on my acer predator 15 i went the nvidia route and i keep getting this error.

Error while installing packages

It would be grate if someone could help me with this before i install it on my main pc

Repeat the install and do an offline install. Don't connect to internet, don't install nvidia drivers and don't install updates or third party software.
Then it works.
Install the drivers and updates afterwards.
Go to tab Software&Updates > Additional drivers there you can see which drivers are offered for your system.

Oki will do but do i need to reinstall Windows again and then repeat the zorin install? Sorry this is my first time trying this

I don't think Windows needs to be reinstalled.

Oki thanks for the help but the small install box is just black now but it looks to be working ill probably ask for some more help later on tyty

Huh so this just happened

Any ideas why or what i should do

That's typical for ACER. Take a look at the two links what to do now.

Oki i did that but now i get these props

Try it with disabled secure boot if it is enabled.

Oki but i just read over one of the forms what am i supposed to do in the grub screen?

In the grub screen you normally choose Zorin OS to start it.

It worked


But do i turn on secure boot again then after i install and update everything

For many users it is much easier to keep secure boot off during Limux use. But you could also create a mok, then secure boot can be enabled. I think the method you used should acchieve the same, but often it is not so easy.

Also disable fast boot in your BIOS and fast startup in the energy settings of Windows.

Okidoki forpli i thank you dearly for all your help i hope you have an amazing day and i might post again on here in the next few days to ask about anything tyty<3<3

Oh one more thing after i installed zorin my laptop just wont let me connect to my Internet router any ideas why?

Take a look at Software&Updates >Additional drivers if there is offered one.
Make sure, secure boot and fast boot in BIOS are disabled and fast startup in Windows.

Please post the terminal output of

rfkill list

and

sudo lshw -C network

Well i dont see fast boot anywhere in bios nor windows fast start up

In Windows it is at energy settings.
