You can still mount them using device names as you've done before.
Though note that on systems with variable drives (plugged in, not
plugged in, booted in alternative ways, etc.), that device names can
shuffle around.
e.g. /dev/sda1 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
Or use the unvarying UUIDs instead of device names.
e.g. UUID=7877er-34324-354534-654634 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
Though, the installer should take care of this for you. When you select
what partitions to mount where, it should write the fstab file for you.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I
read messages from the public lists.
