@Ray,
It seems to have been fixed for me. I suspect that you're either not running
the AMI you think you are, or some process of your own is adding entries to
/etc/fstab.

@Scott:
Thanks for testing. I think I was a bit too fast on this one. I think
you are right. They are rebooting, but all of my HVM instances took a
very long to reboot yesterday: 10 min. So i thought they were stuck
and I terminated them.
I will do some more testing on this and report back if
Apparently the fix hasn't made it into the daily releases of Natty on
EC2.
This is especially troublesome for someone trying to boot a HVM instance
with CUDA enabled, because a reboot is needed after installation of the
NVIDIA dev drivers.
Here is a one-liner for a quick fix:
sudo perl -pi -e
