Systemd-boot change kernel boot order

I installed both the standard Linux kernel and header, along with the zen kernel. I would like the zen kernel to be the default (1st choice), but Arch made the standard kernel the 1st boot option. How would I go about changing this? I have found nothing in the Wiki detailing this.

Solution:  Uninstall the other kernel.

It seems no one knows a working solution.

Re: Systemd-boot change kernel boot order

You can just make an entry default, if you're hard set on changing the order I'm also not sure what to do about that, I'd assume entry names will be sorted alphabetically

Re: Systemd-boot change kernel boot order

Use the default option in loader.conf. Or use the arrow keys to select the desired default at the menu, it will be remembered thereafter.

It's in the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/system … figuration
