yes it's true, the user-data script is executed only at the first boot.If I launch the Debian 7.1 with user-data, it works.But if I create an AMI of this instance, the user-data is not execute for the instances launched with this AMI.It's disturbing, because with the offical AWS linux AMI, I can create AMI of her and the user-data works for instance launched by this custom AMI.2013/9/14 Anders Ingemann <anders@ingemann.de>The script should run only once, it removes itself from startup after the first boot.One of these messages should show up when you run dmesg (or if you click "show boot log" in the AWS console).

It seems that the ec2-run-user-data command is not executed during boot time.After booting if I run /etc/init.d/ec2-run-user-data it works well.I've nothing in syslog about his execution...Very strange2013/9/14 Anders Ingemann <anders@ingemann.de>
Assuming the script runs on startup, the fault should be here: https://github.com/andsens/build-debian-cloud/blob/master/init.d/ec2-run-user-data#L36Is `head -1` correct usage, shouldn't it be `head -n 1`?
