I'm going to guess that it's easier to blacklist a make, than individual models.

One way to opt in is to use parted or gdisk to make a GPT without a partition, 
then tell Anaconda to use the "Use Free Space" installation type. Actually, 
only the "Use All Space" causes a change in partition scheme, so you could also 
make a single partition GPT disk with parted or gdisk, and also use the 
"Replace Existing Linux System" option.
