So I ran into the NVIDIA problem, but the weird thing about this that I pick the “discrete graphics” option in the bios, the non-free driver will prevent the system from booting. However if I switched to “Switchable graphics”, it will succeed in booting and I get to install the non-free driver through the Garuda Settings Manager, Hardware Configuration, and clicking Auto Install Proprietary Drivers. Make sure to uninstall the python-xdg or it will fail to install due to conflict. More here:
