* kudzu has been removed from EL6, so now this bug [[bugzilla:3596|Bug #3596: Stop using kudzu for NIC detection]] needs to be fixed so we can detect network interfaces. A patch is waiting to be aproved.
* Here's a code snipet which seems to work, the only thing missing is to retrieve the interface description from hwdata, for now, it just return the name 'eth0, eth1 etc… instead of the description (in esmith/ethernet.pm)
