Hi Ian, That should be the correct AMI. Its not listed in the Quick Start; you need to look in 'Community AMIs'. You can do search either on the AMI ID you have, or the string "379101102735/debian-wheezy-amd64-20130505". That first number is the account ID, so you can search just for "379101102735/" and you should see all AMIs that account is sharing. I'm in Perth and about to head to sleep; if you're still stuck in the morning feel free to give me a call and I'll be happy to help! ;) -- /Mobile:/ +61 422 166 708, /Email:/ james_AT_rcpt.to
