It would be very useful if you could provide some more details of the
problems with the 2.6 kernel. A copy of /var/log/syslog and
/var/log/messages from inside the installer during such an install would
be best of all. Without details about the real problems, nobody can fix
it.

The nice thing about doing it this way is that if you have two
partititions with mount points assigned and want to switch them, you can
do it in only two operations: switch 1 to b and 2 to a. If it removed
used mounts you would need to switch 1 to nothing, then 2 to a, then 1
to b.

There's no real risk of duplicate mount points happening, since the
partitioner has a sanity check for that before finishing the
partitioning.
