I understand I might need to boot a LIVE copy and then once this is running, I should have an option for a full install on the new desktop. I don't have a working Disk drive to use. I am now close to giving up and I just want someone to tell me how I can install Zorin onto my machine using a 1TB external hard drive. I have also been advised to use the 'unetbootin' tool, but again, this tool doesn't recognise the USB hard-drive. iso image onto the hard-drive but this tool doesn't detect the hard-drive. I have been advise to use the 'Windows 7 USB/DVD' tool to copy the bootable. I can format the drive to either NTFS or ExFAT, there is no FAT32 option. I have download the latest version of Zorin to my desktop but I need to install it on another machine via an external hard drive that is not a pen drive. I have been searching online for HOURS trying to find the solution and everybody has given me bad advice that doesn't work. You wouldn't believe how many websites I visited and pages I read that seem like a big waste of time now that I've found the solution.īTW, while writing this post, the Zorin OS installation has finished and I am now looking at my new desktop on my other computer. As crazy as that sounds, it made a big difference for me as this small thing was the source of most of my confusion.

Also, another thing that may help you to resolve your problem if your using a large external hard-drive rather than a small USB pendrive, when searching for solutions online, it's best to use the term HDD because otherwise people just assume it's a pendrive and give advice that might not work. Thank you 'USAFRet' for at least trying to help me, I really do appreciate it, because you was trying to help, it encouraged me to keep trying instead of giving up so your a star.įor anyone with the same problem as me, just visit the link I posted earlier to download a quick free tool that formats your hard drive to FAT32. I'm waiting for Zorin to install now but I'm confident it will work because I went through all of the set-up options without any problems.

Just to let you know, I think I've cracked it. Windows 7 doesn't provide this option in the format anymore, just ExFat and NTFS.

It might help if you know how to change a hard-drive to a Fat32 file format because this seems to be the problem. The tool carried on doing what it does after I selected 'ok' I then ran the tool and it started to work ok but then I got a error (1) popup that said the USB won't be bootable. Anyway, I selected it because it wouldn't show my external hard-drives without it. There was an option on the 'Pendrivelinux' tool to show 'all drives' but it said 'BE CAREFUL' next to it. That laptop currently has a broken version of linux on it from a previous attempt to install that went wrong as well so unless I can install the Zorin OS on it, i might as well chuck it away. The only option I have is to use an external hard-drive because the Disk drive isn't working on the laptop I want to install on. I'm confused why anyone would still use Fat32 because this is an old format from the XP era that is very inefficient.ĭo you have any other ways to install because these tools are no good?

I suspect it's because they are not Fat32 but Windows 7 doesn't allow you to format Fat32 anymore, they only give you ExFat or NTFS to choose from. I have two BLANK external hard-drives but none get detected. This is the same advice everyone has given me but it never works. Pendrivelinux has EXACTLY the same problem as the 'Windows 7 USB/DVD' tool and the 'unetbootin' tool. PenDrive linux will allow you to turn that into a boot/installation device.Ĭan your laptop boot from a USB? Probably.You might need to change your BIOS settings to allow this. The bootable drive creation may blow all of that away. So.on your external drive, remove/copy anything you need to keep that exists on it. I need to install it from an external drive. I have another laptop and I need it installed on that, on it's internal hard-drive. Zorin is just another Linux distro, that looks somewhat like Windows. Where do you want to install this? Specifically, on what type of drive?Īnd what do you want to install it from? USB? DVD? Some external drive?
