Thanks Kevin, I think choice 2 is the best given the current situation. I've never done an OOB build, I don't have any secured XO-1.0 laptops to verify the signing process. There's an extreme urgency to meet a Wednesday deadline, and I've got some other priorities to deal with before leaving, and cannot spend 100% of my time learning what I need to know.
I think choice 1 would be a better choice, if I had more time and confidence with regard to OOB and signing images.
