During the install, the usb stick was considered /dev/sda, while the SATA harddrive was /dev/sdb. Everything worked fine until the first boot, in which the usb stick was removed, and the SATA hard drive became /dev/sda, which grub did not expect. Also the fstab was referring to /dev/sdb.

I ran into this too (in october 2008, using an USB disk containing a netboot 
initrd.gz of lenny/testing).
I edit /etc/fstab & Grub to use UDEV by Label.

The installer [& grub] can use LABEL or UUID by default to identify partitions.
I totally agree.
Maybe GRUB 2 will help to do this ?
