Zima OS Unable to boot

I decided to try and install Zima OS 1.3.3 on my laptop and followed the tutorial via the documentation.

Zima OS install screen did show up but cannot be installed on the NVME SSD (stuck on 95%). While the SATA SSD install did success, the bios did not recognized it as a bootable drive.

I have tried and roll back to different releases, multiple boot usb too, but all didnt work.

If you install and boot ZimaOS on a laptop, you need the following necessary conditions:

  1. UEFI boot.
  2. Disable Secure Boot in the BIOS.

According to your description, it seems that the problem cannot be accurately pinpointed. Could you try it on another PC?

I also had troubles restoring the zimaos image to a NVMe drive (SATA worked fine).

My reason was that I changed the logic block address size from 512 to 4096:

After changing it back to 512, I was able to deploy the Image onto the NVMe drive without any issue.

I have a question about this.

Whether the block address size is set to 512 or 4096, how did you install the OS specifically?
