Description

From BOOTIF first, when not set than the one that eth0 was assigned.

We may need to introduce new fact name, because we do not want to mangle facter output. I recommend something like "discovered_mac".

17:44     mburns | lzap: it should report the value of BOOTIF from kernel commandline
17:45     mburns | and if that doesn't exist, then i could see defaulting to macaddress_eth0
17:46       lzap | mburns: we can do that, it might be named differently as those are coming from facter
17:47       lzap | I could name this discovered_mac
17:47     mburns | lzap: that could work
