Starting mysql and apache2 at startup should be the default when you 
installed them.  Something must be getting in the way.  You are able to 
start them manually, through the system startup programs?

mysql is controlled by upstart.  upstart should run it as soon as the 
filesystems are mounted and the network layer is configured.  The 
"status mysql" command might tell you something.  Mine says "mysql 
start/running, process 1269".
