Re: I need gparted includes in the live usb

You can install gparted from within a live session (it will need an Internet connection and will not be persistent).
You can also look at KDE Partition Manager ($ partitionmanager), maybe it is installed by default in the live USB (I didn't check).

KDE partition manager is installed by default in the live media.

I think a lot of it comes down to preferences. I prefer GParted and like most live distros you can install applications and run them. They don't exactly install, they are just running in memory.

Its just easier to use KDE partition manager since its already included, but nothing wrong with gparted except it wont be persistent with a live session.

Well it will only be needed for creating partitions anyway. cf. Zorin - if you choose the 'Something Else' method of installation, it launches GParted which gets removed after install. Whilst GParted does not remain it is useful to install various apps to see how they perform, yet this will be dependent on how much RAM is available.

I like the way Zorin does things, great for users.
