Adding the option to install multiple graphics drivers.
I own a laptop that has uses both amd integrated graphics and an external nvidia gpu. This can cause some problems after installing, mainly because of the fact that I'm only able to install one graphics driver while using archinstall. I think it would be possible to let user's select multiple drivers instead of just letting you select one (and yes, I know you can just use all open source, but nvidia open source driver's are still bad atm). You could use the same UI as is in the kernel selection screen.
I'm just interested to know if this is possible and what other people think of it. Thanks for listening.
Oh sorry, forgot to mention, because of the way my computer is wired I can't just disable the integrated graphics without fucking a bunch of other shit up, so that option's off the table.
And ig I theoretically could use just the integrated graphics, but my system would be waaaay slower if I did, so I'd rather just deal with the issues in isolation whenever they come up.

I have the same issue. I'd rather be able to install multiple GPU drivers as well. Hope this gets added...
Workaround until we discuss/figure this out would be to just add nvidia (for instance) as an additional package. The drivers really don't need any setup so add it to your liking for now :)
Same problem… @Torxed you mean after selecting all open source option in archinstall?
