Lineage OS the new CyanogenMod! Yep CyanogenMod has been shut down now and all the Official developments has been stopped for CyanogenMod but the good news is that they have announced Lineage OS and further development from here will happen on the CyanogenMod code but in the name of Lineage OS.
The Official Lineage OS ROM has just been started rolling out and Moto G 2014 (titan) has got its official build. Below are the instructions on how to flash with download links.
Install Lineage OS on Moto G 2014 (titan)
1) You Need to have a Unlocked bootloader and have a custom recovery like TWRP flashed. If you haven’t already done then there is an article on how to flash TWRP and root Moto G read it here
2) Take a Complete Backup of your Device. This is the most important step as if you screw up something you’ll have a complete backup so you can restore to the previous state. Here is a video on How to Backup your android.
3) Download Lineage OS for Moto G From Here.
4) Download Gapps for google apps from here.
5) Copy the downloaded files to the internal storage of your Moto G.
6) Shut down your Android device and then hold Volume Down and Power button simultaneously to boot into recovery.
8) Go back to the home page of the TWRP then tap on –>”Install”, then navigate to the folder where you have copied the Lineage OS rom and the Gapps file which you downloaded before.
9) Select the –>”Lineage OS rom zip file” and then click on –>”Add More Zip Files”, then select the –>”Open Gapps Zip File”, then swipe to confirm the flash and wait until it gets completed. Have patience as it may take 5-20 minutes for installation.
11) Now select your Language and configure your device like you would do when you have brought an new Android.
12) While configuring your google account if you are redirected back to the first stage of configuration then disconnect from the wifi and turn of your Mobile data and skip google account configuration for now and you will be good to go!

Sir What's the difference in Lineage OS and resurrection remix.
LineageOS was formerly Known as CyanogenMod, I reckon you already know that and Resurrection Remix was built from the source code of CyanogenMod and is one of the many CM based ROMs. So with having all the goods that Lineage OS has, the code has been modifed and there are lot more features implemented along with few new controls with lot of customizability.
CM14 and Lineage OS both were not installing with an error "E: error executing updater binary in zip" . Though I've been doing rooting and flashing for a long time. I read your blog and I was doing exactly the same.
Here comes the main part, I saw your download link for T.W.R.P. for titan. I had 2.7 and 2.8 . Your link contains even 3.0 … I fastbooted 3.0 and flashed linage 14.1 … It flashed…problem was in recovery.
Bump
Yeah i've seen this happen with many users, they usually forget to upgrade to the latest TWRP and often get this error. In most of the cases (if not all!) this problem is just solved by updating to the latest TWRP version!
