Error while calling ipmitool

[ulope]

I'm using the docker configuration as documented in the readme. When accessing the metrics endpoint the following is logged:

ERRO[0007] error while calling ipmitool: exit status 1   source=collector.go:44
ERRO[0007] exit status 1                                 source=collector.go:198

Starting the container with -log.level debug doesn't produce any more output.

However executing ipmitool sensor inside the container seems to work correctly:

root@server:~# docker run --rm -it --device=/dev/ipmi0 --entrypoint ipmitool lovoo/ipmi_exporter:latest sensor

Hi @ulope, as explained in #21, the raw commands in collector/collector.go#L191 and collector/collector.go#L192 are not working, and are logged by line 198. I hope #21 or a similar solution will be fixing this issue soon.
