Re: AWS marketplace images and high-IO instances



What's the sed for? If it's a matter of sources.list, why not use sources.list.d?

Looking forward to diving into the python version soon myself.

Hi Luke,

We (Debian) currently have only generated official PVM (paravirtualization) based AMIs on AWS, and have yet to make an HVM images - which is what the larger instance types require.

Right now I am slowly working on getting the switch to build-debian-cloud to use the python implementation for AWS AMIs - and to pull in cloud-init from backports (almost done - just need to finish writing my sed plugin - should be done in the next week or so in time for Wheezy 7.2). After that I'd like to finish S3 backed AMIs, and then HVM EBS 64 bit.

I love your point on signed AMI IDs. I'll post a signed message when I generate them (my previous emails to this list have included IDs, but haven't been signed)

As always, patches (pull requests) welcome: https://github.com/andsens/build-debian-cloud/


Thanks for the feedback - keep it coming! :)

  James
