What needs to be done so that these two issues can be fixed?

| Disk devices may change on reboot
| 
|     On systems with multiple disk controllers, the kernel/udev may
|     assign a different device node on reboot of the system than was
|     used during installation due to difference in load order of
|     drivers.  This can lead to failure to boot the system. In most
|     cases this can be corrected by changing the bootloader
|     configuration and /etc/fstab, possibly using the rescue mode of
|     the installer.  Note however that this problem may occur again on
|     subsequent boots.
| 
| Reboot problems when installing from a USB stick
| 
|     The former problem may also happen when installing from a USB
|     stick. Temporarily keeping the USB stick in place will allow you
|     to boot the installed system and correct the bootloader
|     configuration file. See #506263 for details about such workaround.

We've been dragging this problem along for quite some time now. 8-(
