After finish installation, yes OR no return to original shell, without chroot into newly created installation
Tried several times, changing some options to see if makes difference.
Frequently I do installations of Arch Linux from current ISO on Proxmox (both on local machine and on VPS).
This bug apparently appeared on archlinux-2022.07.01-x86_64.iso.
It's very useful to chroot at the end of the installation to adjust some things before the final reboot, I'm missing this functionality.
Just tried this, can confirm. Replicated in a UEFI Q35 KVM. Selected Yes(default): Had to manually mount /dev/vda2 (root partition) and then arch-crhoot into that mount point.
I can confirm it on the master branch. @peracchi and @vegantom in which one is happening to you ?
Whatever is on the July ISO downloaded from: https://archlinux.org/download/
The code for this hasn't changed in a very long time, but I'm sure it used to work. I wonder what changed.

As I said, this behavior began only on july ISO...
To continue configuration after drop to shell I issue:
root@archiso ~ # clear ; arch-chroot /mnt/archinstall
and then make my changes/configurations.
weird because drop to shell launch also arch-chroot : https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/9194f6d85965f435f8d0ae44ba20e73cc761eb44/archinstall/lib/installer.py#L524
We'll sort this out before the next release, should be a very small fix. Just gotta find out why :)
Small variable comparison error, fixed now :) Thanks to everyone who reported it.
