      you are running command without absolute path of zeroshell.xx.img.gz
      first move to "cd usr/" where we placed zeroshell.x.x.x.img.gz in step 2. then run this command.
      or
      gunzip -c /usr/zeroshell-2.0.RC2.img.gz > /dev/sda

      mkdir /mnt/tmp-flash && mount /dev/sdb /mnt/tmp-flash && echo $?
      NOTE: "/dev/sdb or any name of usb device"
      cd /mnt/tmp-flash && gunzip -c zeroshell-2.0.RC2.img.gz > /dev/sda
      NOTE: /dev/sda or any name of your hard disk

      OR

      follow steps in post (use magiciso to open ZeroShell-2.0.RC2.iso and put ZeroShell-2.0.RC2-IDE-USB-SATA-2GB.img.gz in /usr directory in iso image then save it and write it to cd
      boot from cd and move to /usr and then
      gunzip -c zeroshell-2.0.RC2.img.gz > /dev/sda

      still if you face any issue let me know
      i have edited iso image with me you can take and write it to cd and blah blah....

      zeroshell image is not uncompressed properly on your hard drive if you have selected correct hard drive path /dev/sda - sdb when unzipping the image to hard disk then it would not give GRUB LOADING option..
