I had the idea of creating a startup script which changes the UUID of the root volume on first boot. I create an issue on github: https://github.com/andsens/ec2debian-build-ami/issues/40 Some of you might not have a github account, so I thought I would take it here instead:
> When debugging an instance, mounting the volume on another instance is the > best way to go. > This is a problem when the instance used for debugging and the instance to > debug use the same AMI. > The system will complain that the UUID of the root volume and the one of the > buggy instance is the same. This is an unnecessary problem people have to fix > by googling how to override that check. > By changing the UUID on first boot, this problem can be avoided. What do you guys think, is this a sensible thing to do? Anders -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
