Im currently attempting to install ZorinOS on my framework laptop. I enter the boot manager and boot into my flash drive containing ZorinOS, and click the “try or install ZorinOS.” After that I’m met with a black screen and nothing comes after that. I used a virtual machine on here with ZorinOS and it seemed to work perfectly fine. What am I missing here? Thanks!

It is probably a UEFI issue, so you will need to go into the BIOS and disable SecureBoot. Do that by repeated pressing F2 during power up and then disabling SecureBoot option.
If that doesn’t work, you might try selecting the safe graphics mode.

@Manas_Mathur, cant help u, but I can tell u that Zorin16 is running on my Framework. Still trying to figure out how to connect Wi-Fi…
FYI today I installed Zorin 16 Pro. The live/test boot does not have wifi, but once you do the full install with updates, all was just fine. The fingerprint scanner worked partially, but that was better than I ever managed with the latest Ubuntu
