Maybe we've got a misunderstanding here. The change is only expected to stop *other* USB devices from showing up in /etc/fstab. If you're installing using /dev/sda as a mini.iso / HD_MEDIA, then that will still be added for now. Whether that's *also* right or wrong I'm not 100% sure, but that's not what I was expecting to change.
