The problem may be that if you boot from USB stick, this device would
also appear in the list of available disks.

Maybe it's better if you can write a script class/99-usb-disk.source
which redefines the internal variable disklist:

newlist="sdf"
echo disklist=\"$newlist\" >> $LOGDIR/additional.var


Then the disklist of FAI will be overwritten.
