Opps misread your question. Didn't notice you were referring to an
instance-store AMI. Please ignore my reply. I just tested with the
corresponding us-east-1 AMI and see the same thing. I'm not sure why
it's 1GB. (When I last used instance-store AMIs regularly, most AMIs I
used where built with a 10GB root volume). Please note, that if you do
need a bigger root volume you can always bundle a new AMI based on the
smaller one. However, that said, I recommend in almost all cases for
folks to use instances with EBS backed root volumes.
James, great work, just belatedly noticed we are shipping HVM AMIs!!
