New to Zorin, have some questions about a few topics

[Aravisian]

@John_lindyhopper

In system tools there is an icon name "install release", it said to click it to permantly install Zorin on hard disk, is a ghost from when I installed or it means the os is not reaally fully on my ssd?

Your follow up questions would necessitate rebooting with changes.
So this question by itself is very odd.
Are you booting with the LiveUSB plugged in still?
Are you booting a LiveUSB that is set up with Persistence?

I have never heard of nor seen Ubiquity or Subiquity leave behind a ghost, as it is Casper on SquashFS...

I'm on kernel 6.14, latest kernels, 6.17 kernels just go rigth to kernel panic, I updated to the new Zorin18.1 version, but still, How can I check what is causing the panic to fix it? or is other way to manually update it?

Kernel Panic happening with the latest kernels will be up to the kernel team to correct; the end user would be mired in a nightmare trying to troubleshoot it.
What you can do is check your BIOS (EFI) Firmware for updates and apply any if available.
If none available: Stick with the kernel that works. You can lock that kernel in as default boot in order to prevent system upgrades from upgrading the kernel and causing you to be unable to boot and log in.

nontheless any firefox browser seems unable to connect with the vpn on

I think this needs its own dedicated thread.
I think addressing the First Question takes priority - since you have a "Try or Install Zorin OS" option, we really need to verify your installation.

@John_lindyhopper

while via browser no issues loading the epic webpage, is there a specific config to do to make it work ?

This two should have its own thread. But remember First Question.

@John_lindyhopper

backups, if I do it manually, no issues, the automatic one fails every time, is this an issue cause by maybe the same things not properly installed that cause the kernel panic I mentioned before?

I think addressing the First Question takes priority - since you have a "Try or Install Zorin OS" option, we really need to verify your installation.

Is there a spreadsheet or list of terminal comands and how to use them etc, as you can tell, absolute noob regarding using terminal and comands, I dont wanna screw something up

There most likely are, as well as typing

man

for manual into the terminal. Also, check out here (This is a clickable link):

Common Terminal Commands

Update and Install Command to update your sources: sudo apt update Command to check for available upgrades: apt list -u Or: apt list --upgradable Command to upgrade available packages on your system: sudo apt upgrade Upgrade as long as existing file deletion is not necessary sudo apt dist-upgrade Upgrade even if existing file deletion is necessary sudo apt full-upgrade Installing a package using sudo apt install that is already installed will mark the package as manually …

@John_lindyhopper

but I have no clue what where and how to do it, any sugestions or creator to pint me or guide me on this issue?

You can try Jan or Ente's Ensu.
When you run A.I. locally, it will be weaker and less capable. So while these are good starting points - start also with low expecatations at the start.
I highly recommend avoiding unfiltered or untrained models. They may sound fun... But are actually...
Well... annoyingly insane. And utterly unhelpful.
I recommend Ensu over Jan for ease of staring up - but you must use the appimage as the .deb installer is outdated in a way that makes installing on Zorin OS 18 nearly impossible.

On a diferent topic, Zorin OS in spanish u can read it as Zorinos, wich sounds like zorrino, ( the Skunk, the animal) just an idea if the Irish gang wants a mascot for this OS, lol, cheers!

I love skunks. They are very cool little badgers.
But... I think a skunk as a mascot might not work out as well.
