Hello I was trying to install Zorin OS Core on a bootable USB key (I used balena etcher), but when I try to install it, it failed, then it put me on the live version but I retried to install it with the icon on the desktop, but the installer crashed and it gave me this :
We're sorry; the Installer crashed. After you close this window, we'll allow you to file a bug report using the integrated bug reporting tool.

What size is the USB stick you used for the LiveUSB?
At this point, your EFI boot partition has plenty of space and your drive certainly does.
I am left wondering if temporary files being written in the USB caused the lack of space error.
It seems that the installer has encountered an Out-Of-Space error, not sure if that's from the USB Stick you're using or the drive you're installing to. But it seems more likely that it's from your USB Stick given you got a whole 1TB drive to install on
The default installation options are fine 99% of the time. I appreciate others in here trying to help by doing manual partitioning but that isn't guaranteed to solve the issue.
@Gatoux Did you maybe select the wrong SSD/HDD during the installation?
GRUB is a bootloader, it loads before your operating system, like Windows or ZorinOS, and allows you to select which one to load and change boot options.
