Sorting issues with Classifications should be fixed in version 1.0 final of
the migration tool (https://github.com/archivesspace/ArchonMigrator/releases).
The other issues you mentioned about the display of linked records is just
how the Archivesspace UI currently works, and not related to the migration
tool.

A check of the database containing the migrated records revealed the links
are present.
