[vanilla@desktop ~]$ cat /boot/loader/loader.conf
default arch-zen
[vanilla@desktop ~]$ cat /boot/loader/entries/arch-zen.conf
title Arch Linux (Zen Kernel)
linux /vmlinuz-linux-zen
initrd /initramfs-linux-zen.img
options root=PARTUUID=177010b0-e4b6-4763-abae-8be70fc9443f rw
And after that how do i remove the default arch kernel? is it safe to do so?

What does won't load mean? is it not present in the menu or do you get an issue booting the entry? are the images you reference actually on the /boot partition and is the /boot partition actually your mounted ESP FAT partition? Also depending on when/which version you installed of systemd-boot your default reference in loader.conf must contain the .conf as well rather than it being implied.
As for the other question you can just remove the linux package and the relevant loader.conf entry, however it's normally a good idea to keep multiple kernels handy in case of issues.

Hello, thanks for your reply. I meant its still defaulting to standard kernel if i dont press space and select the zen kernel. Yes, /boot is my ESP partition.
And for the version is
systemd-boot 249.4-2-arch
So all i need to do is replace the default arch-zen to default arch-zen.conf?
