There is not grub file in /etc only 2 group
Excuse me janusz, my bad, I meant
/etc/default/ folder.
Its been a while for me too, using that file.
grub.cfg is actually in /boot/grub/ as in screenshot.
/home/swarfendor437/Pictures/edit grub.cfg.jpg
Edit line 201 at end - it is in read only mode so you would need to open a terminal and enter:
cd ..
cd ..
cd boot
cd grub
sudo chown [your username] grub.cfg
then whilst still in terminal:
sudo nano grub.cfg
and edit the line around 201 that starts vmlinuz - it might wrap round to next physical line - add 'nomodeset' at the end then Crtl+ O to write changes - save as grub.cfg and tell it to overwrite existing file, then Ctrl+ X to exit out of nano.
That did not work. Will try edit the grubcfg in boot/grub folder
I am booting from usb (Kubuntu) then I can access the file. Added at the end on 201 and reboot. Screen mess up. Kubuntu boot in safe graphic and display work. Should be somewhere in Zorin to edit for boot in safe graphic.
Do I put before "quie splash" or after. I put after and display mess up
"nomodeset quiet splash"
That did not work - black screen
Hi janusz,
Could we have some specs of the machine please? Especially the Graphics Card/chipset. Make and model of machine would also help whether Desktop or Notebook (I refuse to use the misnomer of 'laptop' as it engenders improper use of such devices.)
2011 Macbook Pro with intel and Radeon graphic. I believe that Radeon byte the dust. Kubuntu boot from usb in safe graphic mode. Should be able to edit Zorin for safe graphic mode or do I have to reinstall. I hate to do it, but if that is the only way.
How did you install Zorin? Balena Etcher?
I did create an install guide for Mac courtesy of a Magazine article here:

Also see here:
Yes. Rufus would not make it
I isntalled about 3 weeks ago and was working fine. I did some customizatio, added vmware with win10 in it. All was working great untill today.
I have Zurin Pro and Zorin lite, none of them give to me kernel option at boot. All other dis6tros do give to me that option
Is that Zorin Pro and Lite version 16 or 15.3?
Both 16
Out of curiosity I would like you to try creating an Etcher USB of 15.3 core and see how that fairs as it is an earlier kernel. I am wondering if it is an HWE (Hardware Kernel) issue if present as such kernels cater for modern hardware and clearly 2011 is not current hardware.
isos are here:

Also the fact that you have Pro I would register a ticket with Zorin team for their assistance:
That will take me few hours as I have slow wifi(max 200kbs)
Lodge a Support ticket - I updated my last post for the link since your last post.
