will work better than:

curl http://169.254.169.254/1.0/meta-data/public-keys/0/openssl > /tmp/my-key

If you look at your authorized_keys file, you'll see a bunch of dorked HTML in there. It happens to work because you grab /mnt/openssh_id.pub and smack it in there. This happens on your Fedora 7 public image that you've provided also.

Other than that, this seemed to work OK. I haven't done the EC2 image part of this yet, so we'll see how that goes.

Thanks for the work.

Installing: kernel ##################### [223/324]
error opening /sys/block: No such file or directory
error opening /sys/block: No such file or directory

Should we be creating the /sys/block directory before installing?

Thanks for this handy script, I will try it!

One small thing: the names of the yum repositories still contain "FC 6" (but the urls seem to be ok)…
