The %pre is far too late to query that.  %pre is run in the second stage
and the ethernet device has to already be chosen to actually fetch the
second stage.

Anything that has to happen before the second stage is made that much
harder in that there isn't a lot of space to spare on floppies already,
and everything that gets added eats away at that little bit of remaining
space :/
