Bug#514916: Slightly better way.

[Robin Lee Powell <rlpowell@digitalkingdom.org>]

I'm now working on etch FAI, and ran into a totally different set of
bugs.

-_-

As a side effect, I've come up with a more general (in the sense of
working with the older stuff), faster way of dealing with the
multiple ethernet thing.  It stops when any one NIC is done.

And I'm thinking:  "Does it even occur to you to try for something
other than the default outcome?" -- http://shorl.com/tydruhedufogre
