I am essentially a novice in this area, but what is wrong with leaving the installer as is -- especially netinst? The kernel could be upgraded post install if required. I love being able to build boxes with just netinst and a good Internet connection.

My (preferred) option would be:
5) Leave installer as is, require user actioned kernel upgrade post install IF required.
