Title: Message Title

Setting the FACTER_virtual=generic will not work in Facter 4. This worked in Facter 3 because EC2 facts made a check on `virtual` fact before they were resolved.

If you don't need EC2 facts, an elegant solution is to block them using `facter.conf`. The default location for `facter.conf` is `/etc/puppetlabs/facter/facter.conf`

e.g.

facts : {

    blocklist : [ "EC2" ],

You can check if EC2 fact are resolved by running `facter --debug` and searching for `Querying Ec2 metadata`. If you block the EC2 facts, you should not see this message in debug mode.
