By doing so, it becomes much harder to predict which kernel version we'll end up with, given how frequently backports are updated. For example, we might make an unrelated change to the installer, but simply rebuilding it later could trigger an unexpected major kernel upgrade. In fact, I booted a QEMU VM using this installer and it actually installed kernel 7.0.13 (since 11 Jul 2026), rather than 6.18 as expected.

I'm still figuring out what a good approach would look like, but in the meantime, do you think this is a real concern?
