Create EBS Boot AMI
july 2010 by robpickering
After the release of New Amazon EC2 Feature: Boot from Elastic Block Store , there are folks asking on AWS forum on how to create an EBS Boot AMI and so I’m posting another way to do it. I hope this will be plain and simple to follow.

Elastician: Creating an EBS-backed AMI from an S3-backed AMI
july 2010 by robpickering
The recent introduction of Boot From EBS for EC2 opens up a lot of new possibilities. But there are some bootstrapping issues to deal with. There aren't many EBS-backed AMI's available yet and, given the rather complex process involved in porting them, it may take a while for them to show up. This article will walk through the process of converting a popular S3-based AMI to an EBS-backed AMI. I don't guarantee that this is the best process and I certainly wouldn't recommend that anyone use the resulting EBS-backed AMI for anything other than testing and further development, but it puts a stake in the ground regarding a potential process. I'm sure I will hear about the shortcomings and possible improvements!

Amazon EC2 – Boot from EBS and AMI conversion « Coders Like Us
july 2010 by robpickering
Amazon recently announced an important new feature for their Elastic Compute Cloud. Previously, each instance was based on an image that could be a maximum of 10 GB in size. So, each machine you brought up could have a root partition up to 10 GB in size and additional storage would need to be added in other ways. The size restriction alone is somewhat limiting. Amazon has not only addressed that, but given users some other very powerful abilities.

How to create an ebs image from an existing ec2 instance
july 2010 by robpickering
Amazon recently announced a new feature which allows you to boot from an ebs volume. But it doesn’t provide any tools to convert your existing AMIs to this new type of image. There is no easy way to create an ebs image from scratch. There are some posts that explain how to convert your existing AMI into this new type of image using ec2-unbundle and dd (a linux utility). I am going to take a little different route and explain how we can create an ebs image from an existing instance. It’s fairly simple to create a new image using dd from an existing instance.
