Finally! The solution for #2 is to do:

partman/alignment=cylinder

After this bootparam (in pxelinux.cfg/default), mdadm did the right
thing and the system booted just fine.

Note that this is done on 2 different x86_64 systems:

1. Sun workstation Ultra20 m2
2. HP xw4600

Both have 2 SATA disks of the same size and same manufacturer.

I'm glad that this is finally resolved!
