To solve the mmc swapping issue, I just changed the device nodes in the appropriate *tgz file for my initfs in the initfs_flasher package. (Added nodes for the device and partitions 1 and 2 and changed the nodes for partitions 3 and 4.) That way if I reflash later I don't need to redo the hack.

p.s.- thanks for pointing out the osso-usb-mass-storage-enable.sh hack. I'd been looking for a way to disable the root fs mounting over usb...
