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.

install.log

Which packages exactly are you not expecting to be installed?

Which packages exactly are you not expecting to be installed?

"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

As this isn't reproducible and without more information this can't be debugged further so I'll close this for now
