Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubiquity

I installed fresh 10.10 from USB stick, during installation I choose manual 
disk partitioning and made 2 partitions:
/ and swap

During installation, my HDD was referred as /dev/sdb (obviously, USB
drive was /dev/sda). After installation, system failed to mount swap
because swap was set as /dev/sdb2 in /etc/fstab

:~$ cat /etc/fstab 
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    nodev,noexec,nosuid 0       0
# / was on /dev/sdb1 during installation
UUID=2f5c538b-02f8-4237-9e6f-4a016fee92af /               ext4    
errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/sdb2       none            swap    sw              0       0


Also HDD became /dev/sda (I removed flash drive).
"/" was mounted OK, because it was referred by its UUID. 


Expected behavior:
Swap is set in /etc/fstab by its UUID during installation and is correctly 
mount during system boot, as this now works for "/" (see my fstab file) 


This issue is USB stick installation related, if you install from CD then HDD 
drive will always(during install and during normal boot) be /dev/sda
