my iso was Dragonized gaming(installed 4-6 days back) and kernal is zen2-1 (installed today) but yesteday i was using the kernal that came from the iso....same issue yesterday too.
Given that you did it five times in a row I’m pretty certain you didn’t turn your laptop into an inoperable object similar to a piece of masonry → 
.
So - if you do the same thing, and the same thing happens each time:
- Why are you doing it, and, more importantly,
- What are you doing?

I tried to install 'video-chaotic-nvidea-dkms-tkg' , in fact i tried three drivers 'video-nvidea-dkms' ,'video-nvidea-390xx-dkms' and previous one. After installing my pc is stuck at boot after restart.
Now i got a another problem in which i am not able to boot normal garuda, i have to use snapshot or else i wont boot, dont know whats happening.
I'm loving garuda so much, if anyone can solve my problems , it would be awesome.

I have the same issue with a GTX 1080, running Hardware Configuration tool installs the Chaotic AUR version of the nVidia driver, but on reboot, the kernel does not boot.
Version 460 I believe was automatically chosen.
And on a related note, the ISO will not boot with a GTX 1080 if you use the Non-Free option, you have to use the Free Option to boot into the live environment.
I suspect it is something to do with the 5.10 kernel as installing that kernel on Kubuntu 20.10, my main installation it also prevents a boot.
