    you say "now we want to boot into a linux environment preferably using a live USB e.g. your Zorin iso and select try NOT install"

    So do I put the USB with the Zorin iso on then boot? but as I have already installed Zorin the menu it gave me last time didn't offer try Zorin it just said Zorin see SS above.

    I am not going to back Zorin up because I haven't done very much in there yet I can start afresh if I need to.
  • hi sorry I got a facetime call from Madeira , yes boot from the usb, we need to move the installed root partition and you can't do that from a running system

    wrong ss here is the right one not to good with SS's in gimp yet is it clear enough?

  • You are making life easy let's keep fingers crossed for step 991
    Right whilst still in zorin usb lets make room
    right click on /dev/sda3 and select resize/move again
    and you should see something the previous one as here


    but this time it will say a minimum size of hopefully 33445 ....so could you send a SS before doing anything else please
