There are multiple ways I think - a conditional component OR a custom action which checks machine name and installs the key.

You're going to have to write some vbscript to detect the machine name and based on it having the correct name, 'fyr*', set a property.

That property can then be used to condition your registry install feature to determine whether it's installed or not.

These links may help http://www.itninja.com/question/vbscript-to-set-a-property-and-reuse-the-said-property http://kb.flexerasoftware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=Q106900&sliceId=

That's the approach that springs to mind, and as no one else is biting on this I thought I'd make the suggestion.
