Installation of Zorin on Mac gets stuck at "Updates and other software"

The installation of Zorin-OS-17.1-Core-64-bit-r2.iso written on a pendrive with Rufus using a windows machine,
on a MACBook Air 11-inch 2011
gets stuck here:


I have tried selecting and unselecting the Install 3rd party options.
Any idea on how to solve this problem?

Have you tried installing with the Macbook disconnected from the internet entirely?

Also - Macbooks are built for Mac and can be finicky about installing other Operating Systems. I highly recommend using rEFInd to install a GnuLinux distro on a Macbook.

what you mean you get stuck there ?
what happens if you select box and continue ?
you are connected to internet yes ?
mind though i have zero experience with Macs, so Aravisian will be better to assist :smiley:

@Aravisian Not selecting any wifi in any of the 2 steps in which I am asked for, solves the problem. Now the problem is that I do not understand the partition table, but that is another question.
Thanks!
@14nd The computer was totally unresponsive: mouse and keyboard. The circle stopped rotating, and I had to stop the mac by holding the power key

in all the installations iv'e done , i let the partition do it's own thing , like leave it at default / auto whatever
thats if u dont wanna dual boot and just a clean install wiping any other OS away
