No expert but an uuid with a bunch of zeros seems really odd to me - and if I’m guessing correctly, boot is failing to mount your partitions as if the filesystems were corrupt, but I’m just leaving this as bait as someone with more knowledge about that stuff corrects me. In the meanwhile I’d check things to really be sure the hdd drive is ok (via fsck, parted and co)

I was under the assumption that OP didn’t even boot into the installer yet. I don’t think the HDD is the issue here. I don’t think the HDD or the filesystem it contains would matter anyway. This has just been my experience installing Linux on an x86 Mac. You have to try a few things to get it to work. I recall Peppermint OS (Back when it was Ubuntu based) failing to install everytime but Zorin OS Lite working just fine.
