fyi in order to get the new ec2-tools to work I had to create the following symlink

ln -s /usr/lib/site_ruby/ec2 /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/i486-linux

So, I used the script to build a new ami without any issue. However, when I try to use a RightScript to customize it (adding apache and a couple of related packages: apache2 apache2-mpm-worker apache2-utils apache2.2-common libapache2-mod-geoip libgeoip1 libapache2-mod-jk libpcre3) My image gets stuck in booting. Is there a special trick to get the Rightscripts to work with Ubuntu?

TIA!

somebody thought about to exclude several directories on bundling?

ec2-bundle-vol -d … (-k-c-u) -s (why always only 1536 give it 10240) -a -e /dev , /mnt , /proc , /sys , /var/lock , /dev/shm

I’m very interested in topics like that, but this one sounds especially truthful, and I really trust the source where it came from. Sooner or later it was going to come out and it finally did!
