Interesting question.  If no one here knows the answer off the top of
their heads, you might try exploring through the stage2 anaconda files
and see if you can find where the eject happens.  You could then create
an anaconda updates file and point to this at boot time.

Maybe there's an easier way.  The anaconda-list folks might know
better.
