Hi, when I select other kernels expect vanilla arch linux kernel and select nvidia (open gpu kernel modules or proprieatry) on archinstall, nvidia (non-dkms) and vanilla linux kernel will be installed. Here is log.

"linux"

From the log file you provided I see

Installing packages: ['base', 'base-devel', 'linux-firmware', 'linux-zen', 'btrfs-progs', 'intel-ucode']
Installing packages: ['linux-zen-headers']

which corresponds to the kernel you selected

    "kernels": [
        "linux-zen"
    ],

Did you ensure you unchecked the linux kernel when you went into Select Kernels? Maybe it was left checked while you also checked linux-zen. See this screenshot.

I did an installation with the exact same configuration as you provided and I cannot see the package linux being installed
