I know and like 2 out of 3 in most of the categories. Ended up with Eclectic, though.

Crossover. I like all three bands listed.
I haven't heard any RIO/Avant or Krautrock I like, I don't like King Crimson much (if at all) and Sigur Ros are the only post rock band that do anything for me.

RIO/Avant. I love Kayo Dot, Art Zoyd's first two albums are brilliant (I really need to hear more from them) and the one HC album I have isnt bad (Western Culture).
I dont like kraut- or Post- Rock and the only eclectic band there I like is KC. I dont knowany of the crossover acts so it was a very easy choice in the end.

Eclectic option. By the way, what's actually "eclectic" on minimalistic, quiet and melancholic album Storm Corrosion?

This is too complex a choice for me. For example I like of Talk Talk what is more Avant or Postrock than Crossover, also Oldfield is fine but not where he has "crossed over" to pop. Can are pretty eclectic etc.

Amon Düül 2 and Can are 2 of my top ten favorite bands, and Popol Vuh,
while not making it into the top 10, are excellent as well. it would have been a much tougher choice if Van der Graaf Generator and Gentle Giant had been in for eclectic instead of Beardfish and Storm Corrosion and the Residents and Univers Zero had been in for Rio/Avantgarde instead of Kayo Dot and Art Zoyd

Crossover for me.
Big Big Train and Mike Oldfield are heavyweights, even when Talk Talk isn't my cup of tea.

There are great things about all of these categories, but if I was stuck on an island, I'd have to go with: Crossover: Mike Oldfield, Big Big Train, Talk Talk
