I have an Acer Aspire ES1-732 laptop. I am trying to install Zorin OS 15.3 Lite. Installation goes to "Running grub-install / dev / sda" and stops. What have you been doing:
Hi Andrewbest, welcome to the forum.
Did you check the hash of the iso before burning it, to avoid corrupted or invalid files? Is this a 32bit system (i don't think so, but asking just the same) and did you get the correct version x86 64 when you downloaded the iso?
Also, is your machine using mbr or efi? In rufus, it'll recommend to burn the iso differently depending on whether it's an mbr or efi system.
Yes.

I downloaded the x64 version.
My laptop is using uefi.
You can try configuring as "Primary" instead of as "logical" using the "Something Else" option during installation.
If you have an SSD, it may be that the ubiquity installer is defaulting to /dev/sda when your computers drive is /dev/sdb.
You might try runnung Grub Repair on your current installation and see if that helps you get loaded up, where you can update the system and have a completed install:
